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.
What is the definition of the tangent ratio for a right triangle?
The tangent ratio for a right angle triangle is opposite/adjacent.
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 correct trigonometric ratio is for tan?
For a right angle triangle the trigonometrical ration is: tangent = opposite/adjacent
In a right triangle what is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side?
The ratio is called the tangent of the angle. (also equal to sine/cosine)
How do you calculate the base of the right triangle given the height and the opposite angle?
By using the tangent ratio of: opposite/tangent angle = adjacent which is the base
What is the name for the sides of a right triangle that are adjacent to the right angle?
Opposite and adjacent sides.
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 ratio relates the length of the leg opposite the angle in question to the length of the leg adjacent to the angle?
This ratio is the tangent of the angle.If the triangle is a right angled triangle and the angle in question is not the right angle, then it is the tangent of the angle in question.
How do you work out a right angle triangle where you know the opposite side and the adjacent side to get the opposite angle?
The ratio of the opposite side over the adjacent side is called the tangent.Expressing the fraction (opposite/adjacent) as a decimal, you can find the angle by looking in a table of values for the tangents of various angles.
In a right triangle the ratio of adjacent side to hypotenuse?
Ah, what a lovely question we have here. In a right triangle, the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse is called cosine. It helps us understand the relationship between the lengths of the sides and the angles of the triangle. Just remember, happy little ratios like these can help you create beautiful mathematical landscapes on your canvas of knowledge.
What is a cosine ratio?
In a right angle triangle it is: cosine ratio = adjacent/hypotenuse
What is the ratio of the lengths of two sides of a right triangle?
Well this could be the slope of the hypotenuse. Or it could be the tangent of the angle adjacent to one of the sides [tan Θ = opposite/adjacent ]
