Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle there are two acute angles, the side opposite to the right angle is called hypotenuse, and the other two sides are opposite and adjacent to the acute angles
- sine the acute angle (sin) = opposite side to it/hypotenuse
- cosine the acute angle (cos) = adjacent side to it/hypotenuse
- Tangent the acute angle (tan) = opposite side to it/adjacent side to it
In Δ QRS:
∵ m∠QRS = 90°
∵ SQ is opposite to ∠QRS
∴ SQ is the hypotenuse
∵ SQ = 10 units
∴ The hypotenuse = 10
∵ m∠RSQ = 30°
- The opposite side to ∠RSQ is RQ
∵ RQ = 5 units
∴ The opposite side to the angle of 30° = 5
∵ sin(30°) = opposite side to 30°/hypotenuse
∵ The opposite side to angle 30° = 5
∵ The hypotenuse = 10
∴ sin(30°) =
∴ sin(30°) =
The value of sin(30°) is: One-half
