Calculate the length that a ladder must have so that when supported on a wall it can reach a height of 3.5 meters, considering that the ladder must form an angle of 50º with the basal plane. Then with the same ladder above, what height does the mule reach if it leans at 60º
Ratios
A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.
Trigonometric Ratios
Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
