1. **State the problem:**
We are given a right triangle with vertices A, B, and C, where angle C is the right angle.
Sides are AC = 3, BC = 6\sqrt{2}, and hypotenuse AB = 9.
We need to find the trigonometric ratios \(\sin, \cos, \tan\) for angles A and B.
2. **Recall the definitions (SOH-CAH-TOA):**
- \(\sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\)
- \(\cos(\theta) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\)
- \(\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\)
3. **Identify sides relative to each angle:**
- For angle A:
- Opposite side: BC = \(6\sqrt{2}\)
- Adjacent side: AC = 3
- Hypotenuse: AB = 9
- For angle B:
- Opposite side: AC = 3
- Adjacent side: BC = \(6\sqrt{2}\)
- Hypotenuse: AB = 9
4. **Calculate ratios for angle A:**
\[
\sin A = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{6\sqrt{2}}{9} = \frac{\cancel{3} \times 2\sqrt{2}}{\cancel{3} \times 3} = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}
\]
\[
\cos A = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{3}{9} = \frac{\cancel{3}}{\cancel{3} \times 3} = \frac{1}{3}
\]
\[
\tan A = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = \frac{6\sqrt{2}}{3} = \frac{\cancel{3} \times 2\sqrt{2}}{\cancel{3}} = 2\sqrt{2}
\]
5. **Calculate ratios for angle B:**
\[
\sin B = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{3}{9} = \frac{\cancel{3}}{\cancel{3} \times 3} = \frac{1}{3}
\]
\[
\cos B = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{6\sqrt{2}}{9} = \frac{\cancel{3} \times 2\sqrt{2}}{\cancel{3} \times 3} = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}
\]
\[
\tan B = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = \frac{3}{6\sqrt{2}} = \frac{3}{\cancel{3} \times 2\sqrt{2}} = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}
\]
6. **Simplify \(\tan B\) by rationalizing the denominator:**
\[
\tan B = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2 \times 2} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}
\]
**Final answers:**
- \(\sin A = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\)
- \(\cos A = \frac{1}{3}\)
- \(\tan A = 2\sqrt{2}\)
- \(\sin B = \frac{1}{3}\)
- \(\cos B = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\)
- \(\tan B = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}\)
