The path of a satellite orbiting the earth causes it to pass directly over two tracking stations A and B, which are 72 km apart. When the satellite is on one side of the two stations, the angles of elevation at A and B are measured to be 87.8° and 84.6°, respectively. 84.6° 87.8° В A NOTE: The picture is NOT drawn to scale.

Ratios

A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.

Trigonometric Ratios

Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
