In the following right triangle find sin A cos A tan A and s
In the following right triangle, find sin A, cos A, tan A, and sin B, cos B, tan B. Please show your work, thanks!
Solution
by pythogorus theorem
AB2=AC2+CB2
(5x)2=x2+CB2
CB2=24x2
CB=(24)x
sin A=BC/AB=((24)x)/5x =(24)/5
, cos A=AC/AB=x/5x =1/5
, tan A=BC/AC=((24)x)/x =24
and
sin B=AC/AB=x/5x =1/5
, cos B=BC/AB=((24)x)/5x =(24)/5
, tan B=AC/BC=x/((24)x) =1/24
