In the right triangle ABC, AB is 10 m, AC is 24 m, BC is 26 m. Give all the possible names of each of the following ratios.
\n" ); document.write( "a) 10/26
\n" ); document.write( "b) 10/24
\n" ); document.write( "c) 24/26
\n" ); document.write( "d) 24/10
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "AB is opposite angle C
\n" ); document.write( "AC is opposite angle B
\n" ); document.write( "BC is opposite angle A
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Draw the right triangle with BC as the hypotenuse
\n" ); document.write( "AC as the base and AB as the height.
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "a) 10/26 = AB/BC = height/hypotenuse = sin(C) or cos(B)
\n" ); document.write( "b) 10/24 = AB/AC = height/base = tan(C)
\n" ); document.write( "c) 24/26 = AC/BC = base/hypotenuse = cos(C) or sin(B)
\n" ); document.write( "d) I'll leave this one to you
\n" ); document.write( "===============
