Does sin cos tan only work with right triangles

1 answer:

6 0

Trigonometric functions aren't to do with triangles specifically, they are to do with angles.

So no, they aren't only for right angled triangles.

For example, the formula (1/2)ab * sin(c) calculates the area of a triangle, and will work on isosceles and scalene triangles.

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)
