Question

What is the cos? trigonometry ​

Answer 1

A trigonometric function that for an acute angle is the ratio between the leg adjacent to the angle when it is considered part of a right triangle and the hypotenuse.

What is cos law?

The cos law or cosine law defines the relationship between the sides and the angles of the triangle. This law is also known as the law of cosine or cosine rule. According to this law,

c2 = a2 + b2 − 2ab cos α

Where a, b and c are the sides of the triangle.

Answer 2

Cos, a abreviation of cosine is used in trigonometry, and it represents the ratio of the hyptenuse and the adjacent side of a right triangle (a triangle with a right/90 degree angle). The formula for evaluating cosine/cos is the length of the adjacent side of the triangle divided by length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. To be clear, the hypotenuse is the side of the triangle the 90 degrees is facing, and the adjacent side is the side across the hypotenuse.
