If sin(theta)=3/6 and 0

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Remember 3/6 = 1/2.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

What well known angle has sin of 1/2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

30?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

And what is the cosine of 30?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sqrt3/2

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Very good.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well that was easier than i was making it :)

Parth (parthkohli):

I have a tedious way involving a circle, but anyway...

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Sometimes life is like that.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

The circle way is good when we don't recognize the angle.

Parth (parthkohli):

Indeed.

Parth (parthkohli):

That's why I said it was tedious, haha.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Yep.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

new question! :)

OpenStudy (mertsj):

We're all ears

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i missed class this day so im not sure how to start this..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the values of the six trig functions for angle theta in standard position whose terminal side passes through (3,4)

OpenStudy (mertsj):

|dw:1364759329653:dw|

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Find the missing side and use the definitions of the 6 trig functions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so its 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then sin would be 4?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

sin is side opposite over hypotenuse
