The sine rule(also known as the "law of sines") is:
a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin C
where the uppercase letters represent angles of a triangle and the lowercase letters represent the sides opposite the angles (side "a" is opposite angle "A", and so on.)
Sine Ratio(for angles of right triangles):
Sine of an angle = side opposite the angle/hypotenuse
written as
sin=opp/hyp.

In a right triangle, the sine of an (non right angle) angle would the ratio of the opposite side (opposite to the angle selected) and the hypotenuse
Proportional to the sine of the angles opposite them.
Rearrange the sine ratio of sine = opposite/hypotenuse: hypotenuse = opposite/sine hypotenuse = 12/sine 30 degrees = 24 Therefore the hypotenuse is 24 units in length.
Hypotenuse, honey. It's like the diva of right triangles, showing off that ratio with style. So, if you wanna find out how long that leg is compared to the hypotenuse, just call up the sine ratio and let it do its thing.
