Triangle (Trigonometry) Solutions Calculators
The sides of the right-angled triangle are designated a and b and the hypotenuse, c. The angles opposite each of these sides are designated A and B, respectively. Angle C, opposite the hypotenuse c is the right angle, and is therefore always one of the known quantities. | |||
Sides and Angles Known | Formulas for Sides and Angles to be Found | ||
Side a, side b | tan A = a/b | B = 90° − A | |
Side a, hypotenuse c | sin A = a/c | B = 90° − A | |
Side b, hypotenuse c | sin B = b/c | A = 90° − B | |
Hypotenuse c, angle B | b = c × sin B | a = c × cos B | A = 90° − B |
Hypotenuse c, angle A | b = c × cos A | a = c × sin A | B = 90° − A |
Side b, angle B | a = b × cot B | A = 90° − B | |
Side b, angle A | a = b × tan A | B = 90° − A | |
Side a, angle B | b = a × tan B | A = 90° − B | |
Side a, angle A | b = a × cot A | B = 90° − A |
