Sin Cos Tan Formulas
Sin, Cos, and Tan functions are defined as the ratios of the sides (opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse) of a right-angled triangle. The formulas of any angle θ sin, cos, and tan are:
- sin θ = Opposite/Hypotenuse
- cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
- tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent
There are three more trigonometric functions that are reciprocal of sin, cos, and tan which are cosec, sec, and cot respectively, thus
- cosec θ = 1 / sin θ = Hypotenuse / Opposite
- sec θ = 1 / cos θ = Hypotenuse / Adjacent
- cot θ = 1 / tan θ = Adjacent / Opposite
Sin Cos Tan Values
Sin, Cos, and Tan are the basic ratios of Trigonometry that are used to study the relationship between the angles and respective sides of a triangle. These ratios are initially defined on a Right Angled Triangle using Pythagoras Theorem.
