Trigonometry and Pythagoras Theorem Flashcards

1
Q

Define the Pythagoras Theorem

A

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

c is the hypoteneus of the triangle.

Can only be applied on a right-angle triangle.

Q

How do we find the Θ using the Main Functions?

A

Tan (x) = Opposite / Hypotenous
x = tan^-1 (Opposite / Hypotenous)

Same applies for the other functions as well.

Do not input * in the last step, tan^-1 Opposite/ Hypotenous is enough.
