So here is my third blog for the holidays. i decided to do it on the 6 trigonomic functions and what to do with them.
So the first one i am going to start with is tan. tan is opposite over adjacent. It can only be used when you have a right angle.
the second one i am going to explain is sine. Sine can only be used for right triangles too. It is opposite over hypotenuse. (hypotenuse is the side that is opposite of the right angle, by the way)
The third trig function i am going to talk about is cosine. Cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse. This one also cannot be used unless a right angle is present.
The fourth one i am going to talk about is csc. Csc is hypotenuse over opposite.
The fifth one is cot. Cot is adjacent over opposite.
The last one is sec. Sec is hypotenuse over adjacent.
With all of these, you can either find a side, or an angle. To find an angle just use the inverse of the function.
