In the investigative activity below, your task is to record down the trigonometric ratios ie. the sine, cosine and tangent of . Set or For each angle, modify the size of the triangle such that is 10, 20 or 30 units respectively.

When the angle is fixed at or , and the length of AD is set to 10, 20 and 30 units for each angle, what do you notice about the sine, cosine and tangent ratios of ?

What is the key concept behind the observation in previous question?
