Pick the ○ next to the value you want to find, fill in the others, and it solves as you type.
What each letter means
| Quantity | Unit |
|---|---|
| Opposite | cm |
| Hypotenuse | cm |
| Angle θ | ° |
Worked example
Find the opposite when Hypotenuse = 10 cm, Angle θ = 30 °.
Using sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse: Opposite = 5 cm.
Frequently asked questions
What is the formula for Sine ratio (SOH)?
sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse.
What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?
Opposite in cm, Hypotenuse in cm, Angle θ in °.
How do you calculate opposite?
Put the values into sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse. For example, with Hypotenuse = 10 cm, Angle θ = 30 °, opposite = 5 cm.
Can I solve for a different value?
Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (opposite, hypotenuse, angle θ) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
