Do you know SOH CAH TOA?

OpenStudy (karategirl2002):

sorry i dont know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sine, cosine, tangent. Right?

OpenStudy (kainui):

That's the S, C, and T part, but what about the OH, AH, and OA parts?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Uh.. I don't think so, no. If I read the name, I might remember it though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, I think I remember it. Sine equals opposite over hypotenuse and things like that.

OpenStudy (kainui):

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.
