Solution 9
(i)
For acute angles, remember what sine means: opposite over hypotenuse. If we increase the angle, then the opposite side gets larger. That means "opposite/hypotenuse" gets larger or increases.
(ii)
For acute angles, remember what cosine means: base over hypotenuse. If we increase the angle, then the hypotenuse side gets larger. That means "base/hypotenuse" gets smaller or decreases.
(iii)
For acute angles, remember what tangent means: opposite over base. If we decrease the angle, then the opposite side gets smaller. That means "opposite /base" gets decreases.
