Question

Use the given measurements on the triangle to write the following trig ratios and answer the question that follows Please help!

Answer 1

1. sin P = 20/29

cos P = 21/29

tan P = 20/21

sin Q = 21/29

cos Q = 20/29

tan Q = 21/20

2. We can notice that the sin and cos of P vs Q are switched and the tan's are a reciprocal of each other

Explanation:

For Part 1

With knowledge of SOH CAH TOA

Sin = Opp/Hyp

Cos = Adj/Hyp

Tan = Opp/Adj

So:

sin P = 20/29

cos P = 21/29

tan P = 20/21

sin Q = 21/29

cos Q = 20/29

tan Q = 21/20

For Part 2

We can notice that the sin and cos of P vs Q are switched and the tan's are a reciprocal of each other
