Worked practice questions

In a right triangle, for an acute angle θ, sin θ is defined as:

  1. hypotenuse / opposite side
  2. opposite side / hypotenuse
  3. opposite side / adjacent side
  4. adjacent side / hypotenuse
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. opposite side / hypotenuse

sin θ = side opposite θ / hypotenuse.

In terms of sine and cosine, tan θ equals:

  1. sin θ / cos θ
  2. cos θ / sin θ
  3. 1 / sin θ
  4. sin θ × cos θ
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. sin θ / cos θ

tan θ = (opposite/hyp)/(adjacent/hyp) = sin θ / cos θ.
