To identify: The Drop perpendiculars from points P and Q to the x-axis to form two right triangles. Explain how the right triangles are related. refer to the unit circle in this figure. Point P is on the terminal side of an angle t, and point Q is on the terminal side of an angle
The triangle
Given information
The given refer to the unit circle in this figure. Point P is on the terminal side of an angle t, and point Q is on the terminal side of an angle
Explanation:
Consider the given information
Circle is a unit circle so OP and OQ are radii of 1 unit
It is needed to determine relation between triangles
See in the triangle POR
See in the triangle QOS
Now
Now in the triangle POR and QOS
Hence triangle
So, the statement is true
