Question 753662: Find the value of the 6 trigometric functions of the following showing the steps to get each trigometric function where an angle is
1.)opposite=4
Hypotinuse 5
adjacent=3
2.)opposite=2
Hypotinuse is 5
There is no such thing as a hypotinuse. The side opposite the right angle in a right triangle is a hypotenuse. You probably misspelled it because you are mispronouncing it. hī-ˈpä-tə-ˌnüs NOT hī-ˈpä-tin-ˌüs
The sine is the opposite divided by the hypotenuse
The cosine is the adjacent divided by the hypotenuse
The tangent is the sine divided by the cosine which reduces to the opposite divided by the adjacent
The cotangent is the reciprocal of tangent
The secant is the reciprocal of cosine
The cosecant is the reciprocal of sine
Use Pythagoras to find the measure of the missing side in your second problem. Leave the value in radical form, but remember to rationalize your denominators when you calculate the trig functions.
