Question

To right triangle ABC with C = 90°. In each case, use the given
information to find the six trigonometric functions of A.

 

 

a= 2 b =1 

Expert Solution
Step 1

ABC is a right angled triangle with right angled at C.  Then,AB = HypotenuseAC = Base = 2BC = Perpendicular = 1Using Pythagorus theorem - AB2 = AC2 +BC2Substituting the value of a and b -AB2 = 22 +12AB2 = 5AB = 5Let θ be the angle formed by base and hypotenusei.e., θ = A
