Step 1
We also know that in a right triangle, the cosine of an angle is the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse, the sine of an angle is the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse, and the tangent of an angle is the opposite side divided by the adjacent side. So, Show more…

Trigonometric Functions of Acute Angles
Suppose ABC is a right triangle with sides of lengths a, $b,$ and $c$ and right angle at $C$. (FIGURE CANNOT COPY) Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the unknown side length. Then find exact values of the six trigonometric functions for angle $B$. Rationalize denominators when applicable. $$b=7, c=12$$
