Basic Trig Question - In the right angled triangle ABC, where AB is the hypotenuse, the sine of angle ABC =

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-09-11] [Hit: ]
In my view the answer is A. But then again it could also be C depending on which angle is used as a reference. I just dont think the question is worded properly.-The triangle hypotenuse is AB so angle ACB is the right angle.So C.AC/AB is the answer-The question is worded correctly.......
I was doing one of those mental aptitude tests for a interview and I came across a question which I believe has the wrong answer but need to verify if I am right.

In the right angled triangle ABC, where AB is the hypotenuse, the sine of angle ABC =

Options are -

A: BC/AB
B: AB/BC
C: AC/AB
D: BC/AC
E: AC/BC

In my view the answer is A. But then again it could also be C depending on which angle is used as a reference. I just don't think the question is worded properly.

-
The triangle hypotenuse is AB so angle ACB is the right angle.
The side AC is opposite ABC so
The sine of ABC is AC/AB
So C. AC/AB is the answer

-
The question is worded correctly.
The only correct answer is AC/AB
