What are Trigonometric Ratios?
The trigonometric ratios of an angle are the ratios of the lengths of the sides of the triangle formed by the angle, with the longest side taken as the hypotenuse. The most common ratios are sine, cosine, and tangent. Trigonometric Ratios of Standard Angles.
What is Sin, Cos and Tan?
Sine, cosine, and tangent are all functions that relate angles and distances in a right triangle. The sine of an angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse. The cosine of an angle is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse. The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side.

Derivation of Values of Trigonometric Standard Angles
The values of the trigonometric standard angles are derived from the properties of right triangles.
The sine of a right angle is 1, and the cosine and tangent of a right angle are both 0.
The sine, cosine, and tangent of other angles can be found using the following formulas:
sin(θ) = opposite/hypotenuse
cos(θ) = adjacent/hypotenuse
tan(θ) = opposite/adjacent
