Question

Write the tangent, cosine and sine ratios of angles X & Y. Write each answer as a (reduced) fraction. Not a decimal.

Answer 1

The tangent, cosine and sine ratios of angles X & Y in the reduced faction form is 3/4, 4/5 and 3/5 respectively.

What are the trigonometry ratios?

For a right angle triangle, the trigonometry ratios can be given as,

$\rm \sin \theta=\dfrac{b}{c}\\\rm \cos \theta=\dfrac{a}{c}\\\rm \tan \theta=\dfrac{b}{a}$

Here, a is base side, b is perpendicular side and c is the hypotenuse side of the triangle.

In the given triangle, the length of base side is 8 units, perpendicular side is 6 units and hypotenuse side is 10 units.

$a=8\\b=6\\c=10$

Thus, the  tangent, cosine and sine ratios of angles X & Y are,

$\rm \sin \theta=\dfrac{6}{10}=\dfrac{3}{5}\\\rm \cos \theta=\dfrac{8}{10}=\dfrac{4}{5}\\\rm \tan \theta=\dfrac{6}{8}=\dfrac{3}{4}$

Thus, the tangent, cosine and sine ratios of angles X & Y in the reduced faction form is 3/4, 4/5 and 3/5 respectively.
