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


What is the opposite side of an adjacent?

The opposite side of an adjacent is the hypotenuse. Sin(q) = Opposite / Hypotenuse Cos(q) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse Tan(q) = Opposite / Adjacent Reference: http://easycalculation.com/trigonometry/triangle-angles.php


What is the opposite of adjacent?

The direct opposite of adjacent is nonadjacent (or non-adjoining). But for geometry or location, the usual opposite is "opposite" meaning "across from."

Definition of the 6 trigonometric functions?

The six main trigonometric functions are sin(x)=opposite/hypotenuse cos(x)=adjacent/hypotenuse tan(x)=opposite/adjacent csc(x)=hypotenuse/opposite cot(x)=adjacent/opposite sec(x)=hypotenuse/adjacent Where hypotenuse, opposite, and adjacent correspond to the three sides of a right triangle and x corresponds to an angle in that right triangle.


What is the ratio for tangent?

Opposite / adjacent


What is sahcahtoa?

Sohcahtoa is an abbreviation (SOH) sine opposite hypotenuse (CAH) cosine adjacent hypotenuse (TOA) tangent opposite adjacent.


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


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.


When you say Tangent of 30 equals -6.40 what does the -6.40 represent. Is it the length of something or the angle of something?

-6.40 It is the length of the opposite leg divided by the length of the adjacent leg
