If cos(x)=3/5
Note:: Since cos(x) = a/r, a = 3 and r = 5
The b = sqrt[5^2-3^2) = 4
-----------------------------------
find x = arccos(3/5) = 53.13 degrees
----------------------------------------------
sinx = b/5 = 4/5
------------------------
tanx = b/a = 4/3
------------------------
and cot x = a/b = 5/4
--------------------------
Cheers,
Stan H.
