The formula used in the calculation is:
\[ TR = \sin(a) = \frac{O}{H} \]
where:
A Trig Ratio, specifically the sine of angle \(a\), is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle. It is a fundamental concept in trigonometry used to relate the angles of a triangle to the lengths of its sides.
Let's assume we have a right-angled triangle with the following sides:
Using the formula:
\[ \sin(a) = \frac{O}{H} = \frac{3}{5} = 0.6 \]
Therefore, the trig ratio (sin(a)) for this example is 0.6.
