By finding the ratio represented by $\sin\theta$sinθ, $\cos\theta$cosθ and $\tan\theta$tanθ in the given figure, we want to prove that $\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\tan\theta$sinθcosθ=tanθ.
Write down the expression for $\sin\theta$sinθ.
Write down the expression for $\cos\theta$cosθ.
Hence, form an expression for $\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}$sinθcosθ.
Write down the expression for $\tan\theta$tanθ.
Does $\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\tan\theta$sinθcosθ=tanθ?
Yes
No
