Question

sinX=5/14
what is x

Answer 1

x = arcsin(5/14)

Answer 2

arc?

Answer 3

sin^(-1) is a common way of writing it these days

Answer 4

thank you

Answer 5

\[arcsin=sin^{-1}\]

Answer 6

sin^-1(5/14)

Answer 7

= x

Answer 8

does the answer need to be in radians or degrees? Whatever it is, you need to specify that on your calculator.

Answer 9

sin x = 5/14
x = sin^-1 (5/14)
= 20.9
*When sin, cos or tan are separated from a variable, you have to take an inverse of it to the other side as done in this case. Hope it helps

Answer 10

Gnagi, you are putting your answer in degrees I assume? Sporty, if your teacher asks a question like this on the exam, definitely be sure to specify if your answer is in radian or degrees.
