Sine equals opposite over hypotenuse and things like that.

kainui · Answer

Yeah exactly. So that literally means |dw:1401202341179:dw| So there's always an adjacent side touching the angle and opposite side that's not in a right triangle. Sine of that angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse.
