It means for any right angle triangle:-
sine = opposte/hypotenuse
cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse
tangent = opposite/adjacent
use the SohCahToa method
The longest length would be the hypotenuse. You can use SOHCAHTOA to find the length.

If you mean 'sohcahtoa' then it is a memory aid for working out the properties of right angle triangles as follows:- Sine = opposite/hypotenuse Cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse Tangent = opposite/adjacent
Its a way of remembering the three trigonometrical ratios of a right angled triangle: soh means: sine = opposite/hypotenuse cah means: cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse toa means: tangent = opposite/adjacent
SOHCAHTOA
use the SohCahToa method
sohcahtoa SOH|CAH|TOA S= O opposite over hypotenuse _ H C=A adjacent over hypotenuse _ H T=O opposite over adjacent _ A
Use SOHCAHTOA, then cross multiply and divide.

Sin= Opposite/Hypotenuse Cos= Adjacent/Hypotenuse Tan= Opposite/Adjacent
D= vyt+1/2at2 a = (v2-v1)/t These are the two most basic formula that are used to figure out projectile motion questions, combine with SOHCAHTOA (trig) to solve simple projectile motion problems. Remember the horizontal velocity is always constant.
The longest length would be the hypotenuse. You can use SOHCAHTOA to find the length.
Sohcahtoa is an abbreviation (SOH) sine opposite hypotenuse (CAH) cosine adjacent hypotenuse (TOA) tangent opposite adjacent.
It is a trigonometric equation for a right triangle, to find a non-right-angle angle. Using SOHCAHTOA, it is the opposite side divided by the adjacent angle
If you have the length of two of the sides and one other angle you can use the law of sines.
