in this triangle, the product of sin b and tan c is , and the product of sin c and tan b is . nextreset
The triangle is a right triangle with:
1) leg c opposed to angle C.
2) leg b opposed to angle B.
3) hypotenuse, a, opposed to angle A.
So, using the definitions of the trigonometric ratios, you get:
1) sin C = opposite leg / hipotenuse = c / a.
2) tan B = opposite leg / adjacent leg = b / c
=> sin C tan B = [c / a] [b / c] = b / a.
Answer: b / a
