What to Focus On

  • Trigonometry studies the relationship between sides and angles of triangles.
  • The word comes from Greek roots meaning three, sides, and measure.
  • The chapter focuses on acute angles in right triangles.
  • BC is opposite angle A.
  • AB is adjacent to angle A.
  • AC is the hypotenuse.
  • sin A, cos A, tan A are primary ratios.
  • cosec A, sec A, cot A are reciprocals of sin A, cos A, tan A.
  • Ratios are formed from side lengths, not from angles alone.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

sin A means sin multiplied by A.

The side names opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse stay fixed for any angle in the same triangle.

tan A is always less than 1.
