If tan x° = z/10 and cos x° = 10/y, what is the value of sin x°?

Sin x° = z/y
Sin x° = y/z
Sin x° = 10z
Sin x° = 10y

Respuesta :

Tan X = sin X/cos X
Z/10 = (sin X) / (10/y)
10/y*Z/10 = 10Z/10Y = Z/Y

SinX = z/y

The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle. The correct option is A.

What are Trigonometric functions?

The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle.

[tex]\rm Sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\Cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\Tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]

where perpendicular is the side of the triangle which is opposite to the angle, and the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle which is opposite the 90° angle.

The value of tan is always the ratio of sin and cos. Therefore, we can write,

tan(x) = sin(x) / cos(x)

sin(x) = tan(x) · cos(x)

Now if the value of tan(x) and cos(x) is substituted in the above equation,

sin(x) = z/10 · 10/y

sin(x) = z/y

Hence, the correct option is A.
