cos(θ)=25/28
adjacent = 25
hypotenuse = 28
opposite = √159 (by Pythagoras)
sin θ = (√159)/28, csc θ = 28/√159
sec θ = 28/25
tan θ = (√159)/25, cot θ = 25/√159

Well, sec = 1/cos. csc = 1/sin and cot = 1/tan
and tan = sin/cos...
So, you have two ways of finding sin...
cos = adjacent/hyp
sin = opp /hyp
opp^2 + adj^2 = hyp ^2
opp = √(28^2 - 25^2)
so, now put in the values and do the arithmetic...
or,,,
if you know trig identities
sin = √(1 - cos^2) etc.
