| \( tan (\theta) \;=\; \dfrac{opposite}{adjacent} \) |
- Hypotenuse: The side opposite the right angle "C", is the hypotenuse "c".
- Opposite Leg: The side opposite to the angle needed "A", is the opposite side "a".
- Adjacent Leg: The side opposite the hypotenuse and next to the angle needed, is the adjacent side "b".
- tan - tangent
