Question

In the right angled Δ XYZ, ∠XYZ = 90° and a, b, c are the lengths of the sides as shown in the figure. Write the following ratios,

  1. sin X
  2. tan Z
  3. cos X
  4. tan X.

Sum

Solution

  1. sin X = `"Opposite side of ∠ X"/"Hypotenuse" = ["YZ"]/["XZ"] = a/c`

  2. tan Z = `"Opposite side of ∠ Z"/"Adjacent Side of ∠ Z" = ["XY"]/["YZ"] = b/a`

  3. cos X = `"Adjacent Side of ∠ X"/"Hypotenuse" = ["XY"]/["XZ"] = b/c`

  4. tan X = `" Opposite side of ∠X"/"Adjacent Side of ∠X" = "YZ"/"XY" = a/b`
