see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that
cos ∅=adjacent side angle ∅/hypotenuse
sin ∅=opposite side angle ∅/hypotenuse
tan ∅=opposite side/adjacent side

in this problem

adjacent side angle ∅=1 units
opposite side angle ∅=4 units

find the hypotenuse
applying the Pythagorean theorem
hypotenuse²=adjacent side²+opposite side²
hypotenuse=√[1²+4²]--------> √17

then
cos ∅=1/√17--------> cos ∅=√17/17

sin ∅=4/√17-----> sin ∅=4√17/17

tan ∅=4/1-------> tan ∅=4
