If you mean "sine" and "cosine" ie ratios in maths, just remember the sentence "Some Old Hags Can't Always Their Old Age."

Taking the capitals you get:
SOH = sin (the abbreviation for sine) = opposite/hypotenuse
CAH = cos (the abbreviation for cosine) = adjacent/hypotenuse
TOA = tan (the abbreviation for tangent) = opposite/adjacent.

This applies in a right angle triangle where opposite is the side opposite the angle, adjacent is the side adjacent to the angle and the hypotenuse is the side opposite the righe angle.

Of course, if the terms you used are correct the answers will be different.
