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.

Cotangent is 1 / tangent. Since tangent is sine / cosine, cotangent is cosine / sine.

No, it does not.

Sine of the angle to its cosine.
It is a FALSE statement.
The ratio of sine and cosine.
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.
