How to Convert Sine to Adjacent Side

The sine of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse. To find the adjacent side, we use the Pythagorean theorem.

Formula:

sin(θ) = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Opposite = sin(θ) × Hypotenuse

Adjacent = √(Hypotenuse² − Opposite²)

Example:

Let sin(θ) = 0.6 and Hypotenuse = 10

Opposite = 0.6 × 10 = 6

Adjacent = √(10² − 6²) = √(100 − 36) = √64 = 8

Result: Adjacent side = 8
