If you divide length of the adjacent side of an angle in a right triangle by the length of the hypotenuse what value do you get?
Adjacent Side / Hypotenuse = Natural Cosine of the Angle.
For example:
Adjacent Side=20cm / Hypotenuse=40cm = 0.5
Look up 0.5 in a Natural Cosine table and look back to the degrees on the left margin, you'll find 60... 60 degrees is the angle between the hypotenuse and the adjacent side.

If the two adjacent sides of a triangle are 3' and 4' what is the length of the hypotenuse?
If the two adjacent sides of a triangle are 3' and 4', the hypotenuse is: 5'
In a right triangle the sine of any angle is?
The longest side of the right angles triangle is called the hypotenuse. Divide the length of the side opposite the chosen angle by the length of the hypotenuse. This is the Sine of the angle.

How do you calculate the length of the opposite and adjacent sides in a right angle triangle if you know the length of the hypotenuse and the angle between the adjacent and hypotenuse?
the sides can be found out by using trignometry.. sines and cosines.. sine of an agle is perpendicular/hypotenuse cosine of an angle is base/hypotenuse..
Find hypotenuse only using opposite and angle?
In a right angles triangle the sides are named the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) and the other two sides are called the adjacent and the opposite sides. 1) The sine of an angle = length of the opposite side ÷ length of the hypotenuse. 2) The cosine of an angle = length of the adjacent side ÷ length of the hypotenuse. Using 1) The length of the hypotenuse = length of the opposite side ÷ the sine of the angle. Using tables or a calculator obtain the sine of the angle and divide this into the length of the opposite side. The result will be the length of the hypotenuse.
How do you find the width and length of a rectangle knowing ONLY the diagonal and its angle?
By using the trigonometric ratios of Sine and Cosine. The diagonal forms the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle with the length and width of the rectangle forming the other two sides of the triangle - the adjacent and opposite sides to the angle. Then: sine = opposite/hypotenuse → opposite = hypotenuse x sine(angle) cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse → adjacent = hypotenuse x cosine(angle)
What is the definition of secant-tangent angle?
The secant of an angle in a right triangle is the hypotenuse divided by the adjacent side. The tangent angle of a right triangle is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the adjacent side.
Is this statement true or false The sine of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to that angle to the length of the hypotenuse.?
False because sine ratio = opposite/hypotenuse
How do you determine which is the adjacent side of a right triangle?
There are three sides, hypotenuse, opposite and adjacent. But the adjacent and opposite are not fixed sides: it depends on which of the two acute angles you are examining.For either of the non-right angles, the adjacent side is the one which forms the angle, along with the hypotenuse. For the given angle θ, the length of the adjacent side compared to the hypotenuse (adjacent/hypotenuse) is the cosine (cos θ).
In a right triangle the sine of any angle is?
The longest side of the right angles triangle is called the hypotenuse. Divide the length of the side opposite the chosen angle by the length of the hypotenuse. This is the Sine of the angle.
If you divide length of the opposite side of an angle in a right triangle by the length of the hypotenuse what value do you get?
You get the sine of the angle. For a right triangle: sin (x) = opposite/hypotenuse cos (x) = adj./hypotenuse tan (x) = opposite/adj
How do you find the hypotenuse of a right triangle when only a side length and angle is given?
Dependent on what side you are given you would use Sin(Θ) = Opposite/Hypotenuse just rearrange the formula to Hypotenuse = Opposite/Sin(Θ). Or if you are given the adjacent side use Cosine(Θ)=Adjacent/Hypotenuse, then: Hypotenuse = Adjacent/Cosine(Θ)
Can you find the hypotenuse of a right triangle when only one side length is known and all three angles?
Yes. You will need to use trigonometry. sin (angle) = opposite/hypotenuse cos (angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse tan (angle) = opposite/adjacent
If you divide length of the opposite side of an angle in a right triangle by the length of the adjacent side what value do you get?
It is a tangent.
