Sin, cos and tan <span>are </span>used in trigonometry to express the ratio of two sides of a triangle. The number is influenced by the angles. The 3 sides can be called:
1. adjacent: the side that near the angle
2. hypotenuse: the diagonal line
3. opposite side: the side that doesn't touch the angle.

Sin is the ratio of opposite side with the hypotenuse.
Cos is the ratio of adjacent side with the hypotenuse
Tan is the ratio of opposite side with the adjacent side. It also called ratio of sin with cos.

If put into equations it will be:
sin= opposite/ hypotenuse
cos= adjacent/hypotenuse
tan= sin/cos= opposite/adjacent

Consider the following pair of equations:
Aloiza [94]
Y = 3x + 3 this is equation 1
y = x -1 this is equation 2
since equation 1 and 2 already defined y in terms of x, we're just gonna substitute y into the other equation. as 2 is shorter I'm going with that today
x - 1 = 3x +3
-1 - 3 = 3x - x
-4 = 2x
x = -2
now we've got x just sub it in equation 2
y = -2 -1
y = -3
so the answer is (-2,-3)

Evaluate the following expression. (-3)-2
harkovskaia [24]
Integers are whole numbers that are either positive or negative. Operation of signs is important when dealing with integers.
In this case, -3 and -2 are integers that are being added.
if we add -3 by -2 we get -6 because when a negative number is added to a negative number the negative sign does not change
thus, (-3)-2 = -5
