OpenStudy (phi):

how far did you get ?

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

no where im lost

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

take left hand side expression, plugin tanA = sinA/cosA

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

im still really confused

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

did they teach you ' tan = sin/cos' yet ?

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

nope

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

so im learning it here

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

ok, dont learn it here. wait until they start them officially lets do it the known way

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

ok

OpenStudy (phi):

they may want you to use the definitions of sin(A)= opp/adj = a/c and tan(A)= a/b
