Trigonometry is the study of the relationships
between the sides and the angles of a triangle.
In this lesson you will discover some of these
relationships for right triangles.
All these triangles are similar by SAS
or AA.
Notice that the ratio of the shorter
leg’s length to the longer leg’s
length is 3/5. The angle opposite
the shorter leg is 31o.
The three right triangles are similar
to each other by AA

Sine (sin) is the ratio of the length of the
opposite leg to the length of the hypotenuse.
◦ Sin (A) =opposite/hypotenuse
◦ S=O/H

Cosine (cos) is the ratio of the length of the
adjacent leg to the length of the hypotenuse.
◦ Cos (A)=adjacent/hypotenuse
◦ C=A/H

Tangent (tan) is the ratio of the length of the
opposite leg to the length of the adjacent leg.
◦ Tan (A)=opposite/adjacent
◦ T=O/A
