tangent ratio

Three Types Trigonometric Three Types Trigonometric RatiosRatios

Sine RatiosSine Ratios

Definition of Sine Ratio. Application of Sine Ratio.

Definition of Sine Ratio.

1

If the hypotenuse equals to 1

Sin = Opposite sides

Definition of Sine Ratio.

For any right-angled triangle

Sin = Opposite side

Cosine RatiosCosine Ratios

Definition of Cosine. Relation of Cosine to the sides of right

angle triangle.

Definition of Cosine Ratio.

If the hypotenuse equals to 1

Cos = Adjacent Side

Definition of Cosine Ratio.

For any right-angled triangle

Cos = hypotenuses

Adjacent Side
