What is the opposite side of an adjacent?
The opposite side of an adjacent is the hypotenuse. Sin(q) = Opposite / Hypotenuse Cos(q) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse Tan(q) = Opposite / Adjacent Reference: http://easycalculation.com/trigonometry/triangle-angles.php
What is Parts of a right triangle?
Hypotenuse the longest side of the triangle, then the Legs: Adjacent and Opposite
3 lengths can be measures of a right triangle?
Opposite, adjacent, hypotenuse.
Which equation describes the sine function for a right triangle?
sin(0) = opposite/hypotenuse
Which equation describes the tangent function for a right triangle?
tan (0) = opposite/adjacent
What is the equation for finding the sine and cosine and tangent of a triangle?
For finding the angles in a right angled triangle the ratios are: sine = opposite divided by the hypotenuse cosine = adjacent divided by the hypotenuse tangent = opposite divided by the adjacent
What is the opposite side of an adjacent?
The opposite side of an adjacent is the hypotenuse. Sin(q) = Opposite / Hypotenuse Cos(q) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse Tan(q) = Opposite / Adjacent Reference: http://easycalculation.com/trigonometry/triangle-angles.php
Definition of the 6 trigonometric functions?
The six main trigonometric functions are sin(x)=opposite/hypotenuse cos(x)=adjacent/hypotenuse tan(x)=opposite/adjacent csc(x)=hypotenuse/opposite cot(x)=adjacent/opposite sec(x)=hypotenuse/adjacent Where hypotenuse, opposite, and adjacent correspond to the three sides of a right triangle and x corresponds to an angle in that right triangle.
What is part of a triangle?
Hypotenuse the longest side of the triangle, then the Legs: Adjacent and Opposite
What is the formula for sine function?
In a right triangle, its Opposite/Hypotenuse I always use: Soh (sin, opposite/hypotenuse) Cah (cosine, adjacent/hypotenuse) Toa (tangent, opposite/adjacent) Hope this helped! :)
What is Parts of a right triangle?

What are the lengths to make a right triangle?
Hypotenuse,Adjacent and opposite in a triangle and these sides can be worked out
How do you find the hypotenuse with a cosine and or sine?
For a right angle triangle:- hypotenuse = adjacent/cosine or hypotenuse = opposite/sine

What are the sides other than the hypotenuse of a triangle called?
opposite and adjacent
What are the three sides of a right triangle called?
adjacent, opposite and hypotenuse
What are the names of the three sides of a right triangle?
adjacent, opposite and hypotenuse
