In a right triangle, the sine of one of the angles other than the right angle is the length of the side opposite the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle), the cosine is the length of the side adjacent to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse, and the tangent is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the adjacent side.
What else can I help you with?
How do you find theta for right triangle?
You can use your trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, and tangent).
How do you use sine cosine and tangent?
They are used to find the angle or side measurement of a right triangle. For example, if 2 sides of a right triangle have known values and an angle has a known measurement, you can find the third side by using sine, cosine or tangent.
How do you find the cosine and the sine?
Sine= Opposite/ Hypotenuse Cosine= Adjacent/ Hypotenuse
What is Sin cosine and tangent?
Sin, cosine, and tangent are considered the three main of trigonometry, commonly written as sin, cos, and tan. sin(θ) = O/H cos(θ) = A/H tan(θ) = O/A Where O is opposite Where H is Hypotenuse Where A is Adjacent To assist further in understanding: http://www.mathsisfun.com/sine-cosine-tangent.html
Why is it tangent 90 degrees is undefined?
Because it tends to infinity. Additionally, tangent can be expressed as sin theta divided by cos theta. The sine of 90 is 1. The cosine of 90 is 0. That would be 1 divided by 0, or division by zero; which is undefined.
How does the tangent function relate to sine and cosine?
Tangent = sine/cosine provided that cosine is non-zero. When cosine is 0, then tangent is undefined.
How do you find sine cosine and tangent of 210 degrees?
Sine = -0.5 Cosine = -0.866 Tangent = 0.577
Do you need a right traingle to use sine cosine and tangent?
Yes, sine, cosine, tangent definitions are based on right triangles
What is the relationship between the tan and cot?
Cotangent is 1 / tangent. Since tangent is sine / cosine, cotangent is cosine / sine.
What is the reciprocal of a tangent?
Reciprocal of tangent is '1 /tangent' or ' Cosine / Sine '

Does tangent of x equal cosine divided by sine?
No, it does not.
How do you find a cotangent?
Cotangent is ' 1/tangent' or ' Cosine / Sine'.
Which ratio describes the tangent function?
The ratio of sine and cosine.
The tangent of an angle equals the ratio of the?
Sine of the angle to its cosine.
What is Secant - cosine equals sine tangent?
It is a FALSE statement.
