Question

if a degree on a right triangle is 62, its adjacent length is 15ft and its opposite angle is x. what is the length of the opposite side??

Answer 1

angle(x)= 90-62 degrees.

Answer 2

Law of sines works:

sin(62)/a = sin(90-62)/15

a= 15sin(62)/sin(28)

Answer 3

a = about 28.21 ft if I did it right :)
