According to trigonometry,sine function is an odd function having periods of 2pi.

And it is a wavy function.

sine function is defined as the ratio between the side in front of the given angle and the hypotenuse

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

In trigonometry it expresses the ratio of the opposite side / the hypotenuse of the angle you are given.

For example if you want the sin of 38 degrees, you would put sin(38) =

and the answer would come out as 0.616 roughly. That would mean that if one of the acute angles in a right triangle was 38 degrees and the oppose side length was divided by the hypotenuse, the ratio would be 0.616 approximately.

No matter how big the triangle was to start with, as long as there was a right angle in it and one of the other angles was 38 degrees, then the ratio would be 0.616 between the opposite side and the hypotenuse.

In the diagram below the ratio of BC / AC is the Sin(A). If it is 38 degrees then Sin(A) = BC / AC = 0.616 not matter how big the triangle is.

Two car washers, Michelle and Nancy, are working on your car. Michelle can complete the work in 6 hours, while Nancy can complet
g100num [7]
Time taken by Michelle to complete the work alone = 6 hours
Time taken by Nancy to complete the work alone = 3 hours
Now, when they both are working on the same job for 1 hour, 
Amount of job completed = (1/6) + (1/3) 
                                         = (1 + 2)/6 
                                         = 3/6 
                                         = 1/2 
So in 1 hours time they both will complete half of the job. Then in 2 hours Michelle and Nancy will complete the total job. I hope the answer has come to your help.

What relationship do the ratios of sin x° and cos y° share?
puteri [66]

Answer:

The ratios are both identical (3/5 and 3/5).

Step-by-step explanation:

sin x° is equivalent to O/H, or the opposite/hypotenuse sides of the triangle. Therefore:

sin x° = 3/5.

cos y° is equivalent to A/H, or the adjacent/hypotenuse sides of the triangle.

cos y° = 3/5.

\frac{3}{5} =\frac{3}{5}

The ratios are identical.
