The two shorter sides of right angles triangle are `5` cm and `12` cm. Let `theta` denote the angle opposite to the `5` cm side. Find `sintheta, costheta` and `tantheta`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


`sin theta=P/H=(5 cm)/(13 cm)=5/13`
`cos theta=B/H=(12 cm)/(13 cm)=12/13`
`tan theta=P/B=(5 cm)/(12 cm)=5/12`
