once more i call upon you for assisstance. I need to know how to calculate the extra values for x in trig equations. My teacher gave me some simple equations to work them out once you have the first value that the calculator gives you. Does anyone know of these?or how to work it out wihout the help of a diagram of the graphs

SIN Y/1*y/hypotenuse=x
COS Y/1*x/hypotenuse=y
TAN Y/1*x/y=hypotenuse
