Trigonometric Ratios

Interactive practice questions

Write down the ratio of the sides represented by $\sin\theta$sinθ.

A right triangle labeled with vertices A, B, and C. The right angle is located at vertex C as indicated by the small square. Side AB is opposite vertex C, and is the hypotenuse. Each of the non-right angles is marked with a small arc near the vertex. The triangle has two angles labeled: angle $\alpha$α at vertex A and angle $\theta$θ at vertex B. Side BC is adjacent to angle $\theta$θ. Side AC is opposite angle $\theta$θ.
