What is the definition of the sine function?

Back

The sine function, denoted as sin(x), is a trigonometric function that relates the angle x (in radians) to the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the hypotenuse in a right triangle.

What is the definition of the cosine function?

Back

The cosine function, denoted as cos(x), is a trigonometric function that relates the angle x (in radians) to the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse in a right triangle.
