Opposite over hypotenuse. Sin=opposite/hypotenuse cos=adjacent/hypotenuse tan=opposite/adjacent
The angle with the smallest measure is opposite the shortest side. Similarly, the angle with the largest measure is opposite the longest side.
shortest side
There is not an adjacent opposite 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.
You would have to use its opposite tangent, tan-1on your scientific calculator. It would be tan-1(opposite side/adjacent side), and you must have the opposite and adjacent sides of the angle you are trying to solve.
Take the inverse tangent -- tan-1(opposite side/adjacent side)
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.
For any angle in the triangle that is not a right angle, the opposite side is the side does not touch the angle and the adjacent side touches it and is perpendicular to the opposite side. The third side is the longest side and is the hypotenuse
no it is angle opposite to tita/ hypotenouse
Opposite over hypotenuse. Sin=opposite/hypotenuse cos=adjacent/hypotenuse tan=opposite/adjacent
use right triangle trig... sin (angle) = opposite side/hypotunese, cos (angle) = adjacent side/hypotunese, and tan (angle) = opposite side/ adjacent side
Tan = o/a Tangent of an angle = opposite over adjacent. Here are the other Trig. functions. SINe(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse COSine(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse COTangent(angle) = adjacent/opposite Cosecant(CSC)(angle) = hypotenuse/oppositre SECant(angle) = hypotenuse/ adjcent.
Sine is opposite side of angle over hypotenuse. Cosine is adjacent side of angle over hypotenuse. Tangent is the opposite side over the adjacent side.
Yes because tangent = opposite/adjacent
10
the tangent of an angle is opposite over adjacent side of triangle
