Module 1. Mathematics

A right angled triangle has sides 6cm, 8cm and 10 cm. What is the sine of the angle between the 8cm side and the 10 cm side?

  • 0.6
  • 0.75
  • 0.8

Explanation

The triangle is right-angled with the 10 cm side as the hypotenuse. The angle between the 8 cm and 10 cm sides has the 6 cm side opposite it, so its sine is opposite over hypotenuse = 6/10 = 0.6. The value 0.8 would be the cosine of this same angle (8/10).

you need to divide the opposite side/ adiacent side (6/10=0.6)
