Answer:

Cos: adjacent / hypotenuse

In a right angled triangle, the cosine of an angle is: The length of the adjacent side divided by the length of the hypotenuse. The abbreviation is cos. cos(θ) = adjacent / hypotenuse. Well Done!

Sin: In mathematics, the sine is a trigonometric function of an angle. The sine of an acute angle is defined in the context of a right triangle: for the specified angle, it is the ratio of the length of the side that is opposite that angle, to the length of the longest side of the triangle.

hope this helps out, if not, i'm sorry
