I will take a guess although never saw or heard of that before.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c for cosine
\n" ); document.write( "o for opposite (?)
\n" ); document.write( "t for tangent
\n" ); document.write( "tangent = sine/cosine
\n" ); document.write( "\"cosine%28sine%2Fcosine%29=sine\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "An angle of a triangle, placed onto a unit circle, or onto cartesian system with vertex at the origin, and one of the sides along the x-axis will give \"y=cosine%28sine%2Fcosine%29\" but this is not enough. y would be the sine of the angle whose vertex is at the origin. Some length information is needed if y is not expected to be restricted to plus or minus 1.
