Question

Give right triangle PQR, which representa the value of sin (P)?

Answer 1

sinR =
`(QR)/(PQ)`

noting that the sin ratio =
`(opposite)/(hypotenuse)`

opposite to ∠P is QR and hypotenuse is PQ ( opposite right angle )

Answer 2

Option (c) is correct.

`\sin P=(RQ)/(PQ)`

Explanation:

Given : A right angled triangle.

We have to find the value of
`\sin P`

Consider the given right angled triangle.

Using trigonometric ratio,

The Sine of angle is the ratio of perpendicular to the hypotenuse.

Mathematically written as
`\sin\theta=(Perpendicular)/(hypotenuse)`

For the given triangle

`\theta=P` , Hypotenuse = PQ and perpendicular = RQ

Substitute, we have,

`\sin P=(RQ)/(PQ)`

Option (c) is correct.
