The opposite side of an adjacent is the hypotenuse.
Sin(q) = Opposite / Hypotenuse
Cos(q) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse
Tan(q) = Opposite / Adjacent

Is the cosine adjacent to the hypotenuse?
Nearly! The cosine is the adjacent side (ie not the opposite side) divided by the hypotenuse.
Two angles that are vertical are adjacent?
No they are not because adjacent angles are on the same side while vertical angles are on the opposite therefore vertical angles are non adjacent.
How do you find the angle adjacent to the hypotenuse?
Remember SOHCAHTOA which means, the Sin of an angle is equal to the Opposite side divided by the Hypotenuse, the Cos of an angle is equal to the Adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse, and the Tangent of an angle is equal to the Opposite side divided by the Adjacent side. So as long as you have two sides of a right triangle, then you can find the angles and the length of the third side.
What is Parts of a right triangle?
Hypotenuse the longest side of the triangle, then the Legs: Adjacent and Opposite
How do you find the measure of a tangent angle?
Take the inverse tangent -- tan-1(opposite side/adjacent side)
What is the adjacent opposite side?
There is not an adjacent opposite side.
The sine ratio of an angle is the opposite side over the adjacent side?
Opposite over hypotenuse. Sin=opposite/hypotenuse cos=adjacent/hypotenuse tan=opposite/adjacent
Non adjacent side of a triangle?
The side that is not adjacent to another side of a triangle is called the opposite side.
How do you work out a right angle triangle where you know the opposite side and the adjacent side to get the opposite angle?
The ratio of the opposite side over the adjacent side is called the tangent.Expressing the fraction (opposite/adjacent) as a decimal, you can find the angle by looking in a table of values for the tangents of various angles.
In a right triangle the of an angle is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the adjacent side.?
Yes because tangent = opposite/adjacent
What is the adjacent and opposite sides of a right triangle?
For any angle in the triangle that is not a right angle, the opposite side is the side does not touch the angle and the adjacent side touches it and is perpendicular to the opposite side. The third side is the longest side and is the hypotenuse
Where is the longest side of the right triangle located?
the longest side of a right angle is called the hypotenuse. In trigonometry it is the side that is opposite the adjacent. -----------|\ -----------| \ Adjacent-| -\ hypotenuse (longest side) -----------|- \ -----------|__ \ ---------opposite
What is the trig ratio which relates the opposite to the adjacent of a triangle?
the tangent of an angle is opposite over adjacent side of triangle
Is the cosine adjacent to the hypotenuse?
Nearly! The cosine is the adjacent side (ie not the opposite side) divided by the hypotenuse.
What is the sin cos tan trick?
Sine is opposite side of angle over hypotenuse. Cosine is adjacent side of angle over hypotenuse. Tangent is the opposite side over the adjacent side.
Is the sine ratio of an angle is the opposite side over the adjacent side?
no it is angle opposite to tita/ hypotenouse
How do you find the other side of a right triangle?
use right triangle trig... sin (angle) = opposite side/hypotunese, cos (angle) = adjacent side/hypotunese, and tan (angle) = opposite side/ adjacent side
