If you mean you want to make a graph of one of those functions, hit the (y=) (just under the screen of the calculator) button so you can create a graph, then hit the (sin) (cos) (tan) (right above the number pad) button you want to make a graph of, then the (X,T,O,n) (right next to the (ALPHA) button to the left) button and hit (graph) (also right under the screen of the calculator). All locations of buttons are based on TI-83 and TI-84 graphing calculator models.
Tangent = sine/cosine provided that cosine is non-zero. When cosine is 0, then tangent is undefined.
Yes, sine, cosine, tangent definitions are based on right triangles

No, it does not.
The ratio of sine and cosine.
Tangent = sine/cosine provided that cosine is non-zero. When cosine is 0, then tangent is undefined.
Sine = -0.5 Cosine = -0.866 Tangent = 0.577
Cos is short for Cosine ( Complementary Sine) Similrly Sin is short for Sine Tan is short for Tangent.
It is a trigonometric function, equivalent to the sine of an angle divided by the cosine of the same angle.

Cotangent is 1 / tangent. Since tangent is sine / cosine, cotangent is cosine / sine.
"COS" stands for "Cosine", which is one of the 6 trigonometric functions. Similarly, "SIN" stands for Sine, and TAN stands for Tangent.
Reciprocal of tangent is '1 /tangent' or ' Cosine / Sine '

If you know the angle's sine, cosine, or tangent, enter it into the calculator and press <inverse> sine, cosine, or tangent. On MS Calc, in Scientific Mode, using Degrees, enter 0.5, then check Inv and the press sin. You should get 30 degrees. The other functions work similarly.
