    Study Notes

    Sine in Right Triangle

    • The sine of an angle in a right triangle is defined as the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse.

    Pythagorean Theorem

    • The Pythagorean theorem is represented by the equation (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), where (a) and (b) are the lengths of the legs, and (c) is the length of the hypotenuse.

    Cosine in Right Triangle

    • The cosine of an angle in a right triangle is defined as the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse.

    Tangent in Right Triangle Trigonometry

    • The tangent of an angle represents the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side in a right triangle.

    Trigonometric Function of Sine

    • In trigonometry, the sine function is specifically the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
