That um triangle um

I'm the RIGHT
triangle
Mathematicians often use greek letters when working with trigonometry
­ this is the Greek letter 'theta' Trigonometry ­ From the Greek trigonon = three angles and
metro = measure.Trigonometry is a part of elementary mathematics dealing with
angles, triangles, and trigonometric functions
Ratios of a right triangle's three sides are
used to define the six trigonometric
functions: Sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant,
secant, and cotangent. These six functions
are abbreviated sin, cos, tan, csc, sec, cot, respectively.

Right Triangle definitions of trigonometric functions
Let be an acute angle of a right triangle. The six trigonometric
functions of are defined as follows.
The abbreviations, opp, adj, and hyp represent the lengths
of the three sides of the right triangle. Note that the ratios in the second row are the reciprocals of the ratios in the first row.
Example 1. Evaluate the six trigonometric functions of the angle shown in the right triangle.

he always hit his target.

The angles, 30, 45, 60, occur frequently in trigonometry.
The table below gives the values of the six trigonometric functions for these angles. To remember these values, you may find it
easier to draw the triangles shown, rather than memorize the table.

Trig functions can be used to find a missing side length or
angle measure of a right triangle. Finding ALL missing side
lengths and angle measures is called SOLVING A RIGHT
