The answer depends on what the triangle is and what information you have. The formulae which are available for right angled triangles are not applicable for triangles which do not have a right angle. Trigonometric ratios are defined for angles, whether or not the shape is a triangle.
In general, there is no simple method for working out these ratios without a calculator (or reference tables).
If x is the angle, measured in radians, then
sin(x) = x - x^3/3! + x^5/5! - x^7/7! ...
cos(x) = 1 - x^2/2! + x^4/4! - x^6/6! ...
and
tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x).
But these are hardly calculable without a calculator!
Note that n! = 1*2*3* ... *n for positive integer n.

Verify that sin minus cos plus 1 divided by sin plus cos subtract 1 equals sin plus 1 divided by cos?
[sin - cos + 1]/[sin + cos - 1] = [sin + 1]/cosiff [sin - cos + 1]*cos = [sin + 1]*[sin + cos - 1]iff sin*cos - cos^2 + cos = sin^2 + sin*cos - sin + sin + cos - 1iff -cos^2 = sin^2 - 11 = sin^2 + cos^2, which is true,

How would you prove left cosA plus sinA right times left cos2A plus sin2A right equals cosA plus sin3A?
