TRIGONOMETRY

==============================

» The trigonometric ratio of adjacent leg and hypotenuse of a right triangle.

[tex]\Large \blue{\bold{Answer:}} \: \: \LARGE \tt \green{C. \: Cosine}[/tex]

» Remembering the mnemonic form of trigonometric ratios (SOH-CAH-TOA), we can identify each ratios depending on what side is used.

  • S=O/H - To find sine (sin), let the opposite side over the hypotenuse.
  • C=A/H - To find cosine (cos), let the adjacent side over the hypothenuse.
  • T=O/A - To find tangent (tan), let the opposite side over the adjacent side

» There are also the reciprocals of these ratios:

  • Cosecant (csc) - Reciprocal of Sine
  • Secant (sec) - Reciprocal of Cosine
  • Cotangent (cot) - Reciprocal of Tangent
