Answer:

sin(A) = cos(C)

Explanation:

Trig ratios:


\mathsf{\sin(\theta)=(O)/(H) \ \ \ \cos(\theta)=(A)/(H) \ \ \ \tan(\theta)=(O)/(A)}

(where
\theta is the angle, O is the side opposite the angle, A is the side adjacent to the angle, H is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)


\mathsf{\sin(A)=(BC)/(AC)}


\mathsf{\cos(C)=(BC)/(AC)}

Therefore, sin(A) = cos(C)
