1.

1) Trigonometry; 2) An acronym, the formula used in trigonometry classes so that students can remember trigonometric functions. It stands for: Sine=Opposite/Hypotenuse, Cosine=Adjacent/Hypotenuse, Tangent=Opposite/Adjacent.

Hey Ed, remember that equation Ms. Lubar gave you in class? Just remember sohcahtoa and you'll ace the test!

See trig

2.

A mnemonic device to aid in recalling the relationships of the main trigonometric functions.

<S>ine is <O>pposite the <H>ypotenuse

<C>osine is <A>djacent to the <H>ypotenuse

<T>angent is <O>pposite over <A>djacent.

Sometimes written as "soh cah toa."

When analyzing a right triangle, remember "sohcahtoa."

3.

helps you remeber you cos,sin and tan.

Some Old Hippie Caught Another Hippie Tripping On Acid

i totally forgot what formula to use for tan, but then i remembered the acid poem (sohcahtoa)

See math, tan, cos, sin

4.

Trig mnemonic for:

Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent

Problem is, who can remeber how to spell this supposed Indian Princess name? Much better mnemonic is Sally Can Tell (sine/cosine/tangent in the vertical column) Oscar/Has, A/Hard, On/Always (opposite/hypotenuse, adjacent/hypotenuse/, opposite/adjacent, also vertically).

Socohtoa, Socahtohoa, Socotoah, Sohcahtoa, ??? Might as well remember the whole order of functions...

See trig, mnemonic

5.

The act of being under the influence of any sort of drug in the middle of a math class. It is also just a way of life.

I was hella sohcahtoa in Geometry.

7.

used to remember trigonometry but also if said in very high pitched voice "SOCHATOA" can really annoy a maths teacher !!! or even "SOHCAHTO" .... "A"
