You can use the identity
cos(x)² +sin(x)² = 1
to find sin(x) from cos(x) or vice versa.
(1/4)² +sin(x)² = 1
sin(x)² = 1 - 1/16
sin(x) = ±(√15)/4
Then the tangent can be computed as the ratio of sine to cosine.
tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x) = (±(√15)/4)/(1/4)
tan(x) = ±√15
There are two possible answers.
In the first quadrant:
sin(x) = (√15)/4
tan(x) = √15
In the fourth quadrant:
sin(x) = -(√15)/4
tan(x) = -√15

Can a triangle have side lengths 3,13, and 7
Elan Coil [88]
No. This is because the two smaller lengths must be greater than the largest length (7+3=10) this is less than 13 meaning the triangle won’t work
