There are 3 sides to a right triangle. if you pick one of the angles (but not the 90 degree angle) you can label the 3 sides. That is the first thing to learn how to do.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would it be C ? (: @phi

OpenStudy (phi):

How did you get that ?

Sine Function: sin(θ) = Opposite / Hypotenuse Cosine Function: cos(θ) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse Tangent Function: tan(θ) = Opposite / Adjacent just plugged them in the right places. the answer would be D, sorry

For angle x in triangle ABC, we have 2 of the sides labeled. what are the "names" of the 2 sides, using x as our angle ? any idea ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well firstly u can figure out the values of AD and AB using pythagoras theorem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then u can using the above formulaes u have mentioned u can verify each eqn and can find out which holds true.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aplly above formulaes to angles x and y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*apply
