In a right triangle the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side?
In a right triangle, two of the angles are acute ones. Referring to one of the acute angles, the ratio of the side opposite it to the side adjacent to it is the tangent of the angle.
What is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the adjacent?
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!
What is a cosine ratio?
In a right angle triangle it is: cosine ratio = adjacent/hypotenuse
What are the sides of a triangle called?
Given the reference perspective of a specific angle the sides are are the adjacent sides and the opposite side If we have a right triangle the longest side (opposite the right angle) is the hypotenuse.
What is the name for the longest side of a right angled triangle?
It is called the hypotenuse. The adjacent side is beneath it and the opposite side opposite it.
