What else can I help you with?
How do you find the width and length of a rectangle knowing ONLY the diagonal and its angle?
By using the trigonometric ratios of Sine and Cosine. The diagonal forms the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle with the length and width of the rectangle forming the other two sides of the triangle - the adjacent and opposite sides to the angle. Then: sine = opposite/hypotenuse → opposite = hypotenuse x sine(angle) cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse → adjacent = hypotenuse x cosine(angle)
How can i find out the hypotenuse if i only have 1 side and an angle?
Use the appropriate sine or cosine ratio.
How do you find sides of right triangle given only the hypotenuse and all angles?
One is the hypotenuse times the sine of one acute angle, the other, the hypotenuse times the sine of the other acute angle (or the cosine of the first).
What is the equation for finding the sine and cosine and tangent of a triangle?
For finding the angles in a right angled triangle the ratios are: sine = opposite divided by the hypotenuse cosine = adjacent divided by the hypotenuse tangent = opposite divided by the adjacent
Why sine ratio is the ratio of opposite side and hypotenuse?
Because that is accepted definition. The sine is opposite over hypotenuse, or Y in the unit circle. The cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse, or X in the unit circle. The tangent is sine over cosine, etc. For more information, please see the related link below.
