Is it true the sine ratio relates the length of the leg the angle that is in question to the length of the hypotenuse?

Yes... opposite an angle of a right triangle to the length of the triangle's hypotenuse.


How do I find the length of the hypotenuse with one leg equalling 12 and the opposite angle being 30 degrees?

Rearrange the sine ratio of sine = opposite/hypotenuse: hypotenuse = opposite/sine hypotenuse = 12/sine 30 degrees = 24 Therefore the hypotenuse is 24 units in length.


How do you know which trigonometric ratio to use when finding the measure of an angle?

Sin= Opposite leg/Hypotenuse Cos= Adjacent leg/ Hypotenuse Tan=Adjacent leg/ Opposite leg


Fill in the blank The ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the hypotenuse?

This ratio is called the sine ratio for a right triangle. A simple way to remember this is by using the mnemonic 'SOHCAHTOA', where SOH stands for sine equals the ratio opposite side/ hypotenuse, COH is cosine equals adjacent side/hypotenuse, and TOA is tangent equals opposite side/adjacent side.


What could be the ratio of the length of of the longer leg of a 30 60 90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse?

In a 30° 60° 90° triangle, the ratio (long leg)/hypotenuse = sqrt(3)/2 ~ 0.866The ratio (short leg)/hypotenuse = 1/2 = 0.5


What angle is the ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length?

Its Tangent, APEX "The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length."
