last one for this assessment :) yayy lol thank yall sooo much Part 1: Make up an angle measure for angle C and a length for one of the sides (AB, BC, or CA). Part 2: Use a trigonometric ratio (sine, cosine, or tangent) to solve for one of the other side lengths. For full credit, please provide both the ratio and work used to solve for the missing side length. Round your solution to the nearest hundredth

any numbers provided?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

noo :/

OpenStudy (callisto):

is AB=BC?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from the looks of it yes they are

OpenStudy (callisto):

are you sure?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i looked at the triangle it looks like it all it gave me was latters no numbers

OpenStudy (callisto):

and no conditions ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is what it says: Part 1: Make up an angle measure for angle C and a length for one of the sides (AB, BC, or CA). Part 2: Use a trigonometric ratio (sine, cosine, or tangent) to solve for one of the other side lengths. For full credit, please provide both the ratio and work used to solve for the missing side length. Round your solution to the nearest hundredth

OpenStudy (callisto):

perhaps you need to use your protractor to measure one of the angles and lengths first

OpenStudy (callisto):

measure angle C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant use a protractor this class is online which sucks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we r supposed to come up with our own i believe

OpenStudy (callisto):

Make up an angle measure for angle C you can use a protractor to measure .. or ..make up your own lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im confused lol i think we are supposed to come up wit our own bc and ab to get ac

OpenStudy (callisto):

OpenStudy (callisto):

so angle C = 45

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok what eles do i do

OpenStudy (callisto):

OpenStudy (callisto):

BC = 4.5cm

OpenStudy (callisto):

AB=BC tan45 =4.5cm

OpenStudy (callisto):

AC =BC/cos(angle C) = 4.5/cos45 = 6.36cm

OpenStudy (callisto):

4.5/cos45 =6.36396cm, please round it to the hundredth yourself :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will thank u soo much is that all i need ? for this question :)

OpenStudy (callisto):

i hope so for angle CAB it is also 45 as 180 -90 -45 = 45 (angle sum of triangle)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANK U SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH:)

OpenStudy (callisto):

welcome
