Question 684320
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. 
a) 10/26
b) 10/24
c) 24/26
d) 24/10 
----
AB is opposite angle C
AC is opposite angle B
BC is opposite angle A
-----
Draw the right triangle with BC as the hypotenuse
AC as the base and AB as the height.
----
a) 10/26 = AB/BC = height/hypotenuse = sin(C) or cos(B)
b) 10/24 = AB/AC = height/base = tan(C)
c) 24/26 = AC/BC = base/hypotenuse = cos(C) or sin(B)
d) I'll leave this one to you
