Find the sine ratio of angle Θ. Hint: Use the slash symbol ( / ) to represent the fraction bar, and enter the fraction with no spaces.
you mean opposite side length / hypotenuse length ?
yes
@DanJS is there any way you can help me and sorry for taking to long it wasn't letting me type
yeah, i don't get notified for anything.. .. it's all good
The sin of an angle in the right triangle is the ratio of the opposite side length over the hypotenuse side length sin(theta) = 12/13
Ok thanks !!! im taking a practice test and I really don't get this question
you have to remember the definition or image of how to get the sin value
omg thank you so much!!! im going to give you a medal. Can you help me with one more question though. Sorry for bothering you.
same for cosine and tangent
well tangent is built from sin and cos, but good to remember it is the opposite side over adjacent side
yeah no prob, ask away
Find the tangent ratio of angle Θ. Hint: Use the slash symbol ( / ) to represent the fraction bar, and enter the fraction with no spaces.
i just said what that is
So it would be 15/17, oh and yes thank you so much, I just read what you wrote above, sorry
remember these, opposite O , adjacent A and Hypotenuse H sin(a) = O/H cos(a) = A/H tan(a) = O/A
after a couple probs you just know where to look
Thank you so very much!!!! Your a GREAT helper!! :)
The tangent of that angle is opposite side over adjacent side 15/8
15/17 is actually the sine ratio, O/H
Ohhh ok, I get it now. Thanks!!
