Tangent Ratio
In a right triangle, the ____ ratio of an acute angle is the opposite leg divided by the adjacent leg
Cosine Ratio
In a right triangle, the ____ ratio of an acute ∠A is the adjacent leg divided by the hypotenuse
Sine Ratio
In a right triangle, the _____ ratio of an acute angle is the opposite leg divided by the hypotenuse
Slope Angle
The acute angle a line forms with the x‑axis on a coordinate graph
Reference Angle
The given acute angle in a right triangle
Hypotenuse
The longest side of a right triangle
Inverse Cosine
When the ratio between the length of the side adjacent the reference angle and the length of the hypotenuse are known, cos−1 (raised to the negative one) can be used to find the measure of the reference angle
Inverse sine
When the ratio between the length of the side opposite the reference angle and the length of the hypotenuse are known, sin−1 (raised to the negative one) can be used to find the measure of the reference angle
Inverse Tangent
When the ratio between the lengths of the legs of a right triangle is known, tan−1 (raised to the negative one) can be used to find the measure of the reference angle
Theta
a Greek letter that is often used to represent the measure of an angle
Equalateral
