Is the cosine adjacent to the hypotenuse?
Nearly! The cosine is the adjacent side (ie not the opposite side) divided by the hypotenuse.
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.
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.
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)
