"Getting your sea legs" means acclimating to life on a ship. "Getting your land legs" is not quite the opposite, as it refers to adjusting your balance and walk to a non-shifting (land) condition after an extended time at sea.

What angle is the ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length?
Its Tangent, APEX "The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length."
The tangent ratio relates the length of the leg?
the opposite
What of an angle is the ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length?
The ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length of an angle in a right triangle is known as the tangent of that angle. Mathematically, it is expressed as ( \tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} ). This relationship is fundamental in trigonometry and is used to determine angles and side lengths in right triangles.
Why can't you get tan90?
Think of tangent as sin divided by cos or sin/cos. Now cos 90 degrees is 0 so tan90 would be 1/0 which is not define since you are now allowed to divide by 0. It's best to visualize what Tan(90) means: Take a typical right angle triangle: From the angle in question (A), you have the adjacent leg (The leg extending from angle A to the right angle opposite), the opposite leg (the leg directly opposite the angle A, of course) and the hypotenuse (the leg intersecting the aforementioned two legs) Tan(A) is the ratio of the opposite leg and the adjacent leg. To solve for Tan (A): Tan (A) = opposite/adjacent. As angle (A) increases, the length of the opposite side also increases. So what happens at A=90? Well, you no longer have a triangle! The hypotenuse (the leg that intersects the opposite side from the adjacent side) NEVER INTERSECTS. Therefore, no longer being a triangle, you can no longer define the ratio.
What is the formula for a 30 60 90 triangle?
In a 30-60-90 triangle, the measure of the hypotenuse is two times that of the leg opposite the 30o angle. The measure of the other leg is SQRT(3) times that of the leg opposite the 30o angle.
Does a bilateral person kick with the opposite leg?
No they can kick with both.
What is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the hypotenuse?
sine
Is a ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the hypotenuse?
Sine
How do you find the hypotenuse if you know one leg and one angle?
You need a bit more information to solve that one, because it's not clear whether the angle is opposite the leg you know or adjacent to it. If the angle is adjacent to the known leg, then divide the length of the leg by the cosine of the angle. If the angle is opposite the known leg, then divide its length by the sine of the angle.
What are the basic trigonometric ratios?
Sine(Sin) Cosine(Cos) Tangent(Tan) ---- -Sin of angle A=opposite leg of angle A / hypotenuse -Cos of angle A= Adjacent leg of angle A / Hypotenuse -Tan of angle A= opposite leg of angle A / Adjacent lef of angle A
What is the length of the longer leg and hypotenuse of a 30-60-90 triangle with the shorter leg of length 12?
In a 30-60-90 triangle, the lengths of the sides are in the ratio 1:√3:2. If the shorter leg (opposite the 30-degree angle) is 12, then the longer leg (opposite the 60-degree angle) is (12\sqrt{3}), which is approximately 20.78. The hypotenuse, opposite the 90-degree angle, is twice the length of the shorter leg, so it is 24.
What The of an angle is the ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length.?
The ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length of an angle is known as the tangent of that angle. In trigonometric terms, for a right triangle, if θ is the angle, then tangent (tan θ) is defined as tan θ = opposite/adjacent. This relationship is fundamental in trigonometry and is used in various applications, including solving triangles and modeling periodic phenomena.
