the 3 trigonometric functions are sine, cosine and tangent (shortened to sin, cos and tan).
- Hypotenuse - opposite the right angle
- Opposite - opposite the angle
- Adjacent - beside the angle
trigonometric ratios
sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse = o/h (soh-sin)
cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse= a/h (cah-cos)
tanθ = opposite/adjacent= o/a (toa- tan)
use trigonometry if it says angle and sides
