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.
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."
In a 45-45-90 right triangle what is the ratio of the length of one leg to the length of the other leg?
1:1 since the two legs are the same size. The ratio between either leg and the hypotenuse is 1:(square root of 2)
What could be the ratio of the length of the longer leg of a 30-60-90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse?
2 Square Root 3 And 4
The hypotenuse of a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle measures 2 feet How long is the short leg of this triangle?
Use the sine ratio: sine 30 degrees = opposite/hypotenuse Then: opposite = 2*sine 30 degrees Answer: 1 foot
What is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the hypotenuse?
sine
Is a ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the hypotenuse?
Sine
The sine ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the?
hypotenuse.
The ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the hypotenuse?
sine
What ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the hypotenuse?
The sine.
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.
Fill in the blank The sine ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the?
Hypotenuse, honey. It's like the diva of right triangles, showing off that ratio with style. So, if you wanna find out how long that leg is compared to the hypotenuse, just call up the sine ratio and let it do its thing.
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
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
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 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."
