In a given triangle ABC, right-angled at B = ∠B = 90°
Given
AB = 24 cm
BC = 7 cm
According to the Pythagoras Theorem, in a right-angled triangle, the squares of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
By applying the Pythagoras theorem, we get
AC2= AB2+ BC2
AC2 = (24)2+72
AC2 = (576+49)
AC2 = 625cm2
AC = √625
AC = 25
∴ AC = 25 cm
(i) To find Sin (A), Cos (A)
We know that the sine (or) Sin function is equal to the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the hypotenuse side. So it becomes
Sin (A) = Opposite side /Hypotenuse
Sin (A) = BC/AC
Sin (A) = 7/25
Cosine or Cos function is equal to the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse side and it becomes,
Cos (A) = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse
Cos (A) = AB/AC
Cos (A) = 24/25
(ii) To find Sin (C), Cos (C)
Sin (C) = AB/AC
Sin (C) = 24/25
Cos (C) = BC/AC
Cos (C) = 7/25
Answer:
Draw a triangle using given instructions:
From figure: Δ ABC is a right angled triangle
By Pythagoras theorem:
AC2 = BC2 + AB2AC = 25
(i) Find sin A sin A = BC/AC = 7/25
(ii) Find cos A cos A = AB/AC = 24/25
(iii) sin C = AB/AC = 24/25
(iv) cos C = BC/AC = 7/25
