The point (0.83265, 0.55380) lies on the unit circle. If a terminal arm is drawn through this point, what is the sine ratio of the angle?

OpenStudy (barrycarter):

@satellite73 Actually, that's the tangent. The sin is opposite over hypotenuse. Since it's on the unit circle, the hypotenuse is 1, so the sin is the y coordinate or 0.55380

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since it is a unit circle the y component of the point will be its sine ratio, .55380

ho ho ho so it is!

second coordinate is sine, first is cosine, tangent is second over first. my apologies

ahaha okay, thanks you guys
