1. **Problem Statement:** Given a right triangle with legs 14 and 50, find the trigonometric ratios for angle R.
2. **Recall the definitions:**
- $\sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$
- $\cos(\theta) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$
- $\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}$
3. **Find the hypotenuse:**
$$\text{hypotenuse} = \sqrt{14^2 + 50^2} = \sqrt{196 + 2500} = \sqrt{2696}$$
4. **Simplify the hypotenuse:**
$$\sqrt{2696} = \sqrt{4 \times 674} = 2\sqrt{674} \approx 51.92$$
5. **Given:**
- $\sin Q = \frac{17}{50}$ (already provided)
- $\cos Q = \frac{14}{50}$ (already provided)
6. **Find trigonometric ratios for angle R:**
- Opposite side to R is 14 (adjacent to Q)
- Adjacent side to R is 50 (opposite to Q)
7. **Calculate $\sin R$:**
$$\sin R = \frac{\text{opposite to R}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{14}{51.92} \approx 0.2697 = \frac{14}{\sqrt{2696}}$$
8. **Calculate $\cos R$:**
$$\cos R = \frac{\text{adjacent to R}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{50}{51.92} \approx 0.9633 = \frac{50}{\sqrt{2696}}$$
9. **Calculate $\tan R$:**
$$\tan R = \frac{\text{opposite to R}}{\text{adjacent to R}} = \frac{14}{50} = \frac{7}{25}$$
**Final answers:**
- $\sin R = \frac{14}{\sqrt{2696}} \approx 0.2697$
- $\cos R = \frac{50}{\sqrt{2696}} \approx 0.9633$
- $\tan R = \frac{7}{25}$
