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?

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.

OpenStudy (mertsj):
Find the missing side and use the definitions of the 6 trig functions.
OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then sin would be 4?
OpenStudy (mertsj):
sin is side opposite over hypotenuse
