Use the triangle below to find the values of

sin(60),cos(60)andtan(60)

and also

sin(30),cos(30)andtan(30)


The angles in a equilateral triangle are all 60.

Draw the height of the triangle from the centre of the base to the top.

The height bisects the base and also bisects the angle at the top.

You can then find the height using Pythagoras.
