Based on the diagram, match the trigonometric ratios with the corresponding ratios of the sides of the triangle.
I do not have a single clue on how to do this.
@Jesusisblack50 Can you help with this?
Im not good with this stuff man, I dont think I could be of any help. I am checking it out though and seeing if I can help you with anything,
Alright. It's trigonometry, by the way, lol.
Yes... i dont know... either...
ah damn... :(

@uri
you need to memorize SOH CAH TOA
I don't even know what that is.
okay are u sure you are ready for this
they are pretty special
Sin Cos Tan are these special functions that give you a relationship between angles and the ratio of sides in a triable
TRIangle
The sin of an angle if the angle is part of a right angle triangle then the Sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuese
My face is blank with a lack of understanding.
This is a lot to try and understand, lmao
dont get confused with the notation Sin(angle) means that there is some special function that is operating on this angle that results in the the ratio which is oppositesidelength/hypotenuesesidelength
i dont know just read that over and over did that makes sense, ask me questions on what u dont get
Then what does the A and B and C stuff have to do with it?
Big LETTER A B C are the angles
small letter a b c are the side lengths
I am incredibly conflicted.
so I have these, and somehow they plug into those things but???
okay okay so lets go over this
now listen here
Sin cos and tan are functions, how these functions work and what goes into them you dont know yet, are u familiar with this kind of notation?
like f(x) or g(x) or f(x,y)
means function of x, or another func of x or another functio nof x and y
uh, alright.. i kinda sorta get that..
okay now sin and cos and tan are the same thing, tinstead of f they are called sin cos and tan
its saying some special function of the angle = oppositeside/hypotenues
another special function of the angle = adjscent side/ hypoteneuses
another special function of the angle = oppositeside/adj side
what i told you is Sin,cos and tan in order
