3. Sides of the triangle are called Hypotenuse (biggest side), Adjacent (bottom side) and opposite ( opposite to the Hypotnenuse)

   • SIN= Opposite over Hypotnuse
   • COS=Adjacent over Hypotenuse
   • TAN=Opposite over Adjacent

4. Pythagorus Therom describes the important relationship between the lengths of the right-angled triangle
