They may be defined as the ratios of the lengths of sides of a right angled triangle, relative to either of the other angles.sine = opposite/hypotenuse
cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse
tangent = opposite/adjacent
cosecant = hypotenuse/opposite
secant = hypotenuse/adjacent
cotangent = adjacent/opposite.

What calculation is different in finding missing side lengths and angle measures in a right triangle using the trigonometric functions?
When finding missing side lengths in a right triangle using trigonometric functions, you typically apply ratios like sine, cosine, or tangent, which relate the angles to the lengths of the sides. Conversely, when calculating missing angle measures, you use the inverse trigonometric functions (such as arcsine, arccosine, or arctangent), which take the ratios of the sides and return the corresponding angles. Thus, the key difference lies in using direct ratios for side lengths and inverse functions for angles.
How do you find trigonometric ratios without a calculator?
There are a few ways. First, there are a multitude of trigonometric tables which list the sines and cosines of a variety of values. if you now one trigonometric value of a number, you can find all the others by hand, and you can also use a Taylor series approximation to find a fairly accurate value. (In fact, many calculators use Taylor series to find trigonometric values.)
Examples of the three basic trigonometric ratios?
Given a unit circle (radius = 1) and a counterclockwise angle (theta) between the positive x axis, with the x-y coordinate of the point on the circle that the angle intersects, the three basic trigonometric ratios are... 1. sine (theta) is y 2. cosine (theta) is x 3. tangent (theta) is x / y
What the three main trigonometric ratios mean?
sin, cos and tan
How many trigonometric ratios are there?
Six.
Why do similar triangles have the same trigonometric ratios?
Trigonometric ratios are characteristics of angles, not of lengths. And, by definition, the corresponding angles an similar triangles have the same measures.
What does trigonometric identities all about?
They are true statements about trigonometric ratios and their relationships irrespective of the value of the angle.
What is the difference between a tangent and a secant?
They are different trigonometric ratios!

What trigonometric ratios cannot be greater than one?
Sine and cosine.
Explain how distances can be found using a right triangle?
Using trigonometric ratios.
Can this be used for sines?
No. Sines are well defined trigonometric ratios whereas "this" is not defined at all.
What complements tan 132 degree angle?
Complements are defined for angles, not trigonometric ratios of angles.
Does a rectangular prism have any secants?
Yes, since it has vertices it has angles and since it has angles it has trigonometric ratios
