Answered by maham237 @



Sin Θ = opposite / hypotenuse
cos Θ = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan Θ = opposite / adjacent


sin x = 1/2 ⇒⇒ opposite is 1 ; hypotenuse is 2
cos x = ? / 2 ⇒ ? = √3 value of adjacent
tan x = 1 / ?

This is the 30 - 60 - 90 triangle.

sin 30 = 0.50
cos 30 = 0.866
tan 30 = 0.577

Implicit differentiation: ycosx=x^2+y^2 Derivative of both sides: =((y)(-sinx)+(cosx)(dy/dx)=2x+2y(dy/dx) =(-ysinx+cosx(dy/dx)=2x+2y(dy/dx) =cosx(dy/dx) - 2y(dy/dx) = ysinx+2x =(cosx-2y)dy/dx = ysinx+2x =dy/dx = (ysinx+2x)/(cosx-2y)
