no it is angle opposite to tita/ hypotenouse
the tangent of an angle is opposite over adjacent side of triangle
Tan = o/a Tangent of an angle = opposite over adjacent. Here are the other Trig. functions. SINe(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse COSine(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse COTangent(angle) = adjacent/opposite Cosecant(CSC)(angle) = hypotenuse/oppositre SECant(angle) = hypotenuse/ adjcent.
sin = opposite over hypotenusecos = adjacent over hypotenusetan = opposite over adjacentcosecant = hypotenuse over oppositesecant = hypotenuse over adjacentcotangent = adjacent over opposite
Adjacent side over the hypotenuse.
For sinX you set it equal to the opposite side of the angle over the hypotenuse(SOH),cross multiply. CosX you set it equal to the adjacent side of the angle over the hypotenuse (CAH), cross multiply. Lastly for TanX set it equal to the opposite of the angle over the adjacent side of the angle and then cross multiply (TOA). I hope that's helpful :)
Opposite over hypotenuse. Sin=opposite/hypotenuse cos=adjacent/hypotenuse tan=opposite/adjacent
the tangent of an angle is opposite over adjacent side of triangle
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.
In that triangle, one of the angles must be a right angle, and another one of the angles must be marked with or the measurement of the angle. Tangent is the ratio of opposite side over adjacent side. The opposite and adjacent sides are determined by the position of the marked angle.

Oh, dude, you're talking about trigonometry now! The ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the adjacent leg in a right triangle is called the tangent of the angle. It's calculated by dividing the length of the opposite side by the length of the adjacent side. So, like, if you're trying to find that ratio, just remember to divide and conquer!
opposite over adjacent
Sine is opposite side of angle over hypotenuse. Cosine is adjacent side of angle over hypotenuse. Tangent is the opposite side over the adjacent side.
sin = opposite over hypotenusecos = adjacent over hypotenusetan = opposite over adjacentcosecant = hypotenuse over oppositesecant = hypotenuse over adjacentcotangent = adjacent over opposite
Adjacent side over the hypotenuse.
Tangent is determined by the ratio of the side opposite the angle over the one adjacent to it. In a 45-45-90 triangle, the ratio of these sides is 1. This is because the side opposite one of the 45 degree angles is adjacent to the other, and vise versa.
For sinX you set it equal to the opposite side of the angle over the hypotenuse(SOH),cross multiply. CosX you set it equal to the adjacent side of the angle over the hypotenuse (CAH), cross multiply. Lastly for TanX set it equal to the opposite of the angle over the adjacent side of the angle and then cross multiply (TOA). I hope that's helpful :)
