Not sure what to do next? So far I've got sinA/26 = sin67.38/24 I cross multiplied and got 24sinA = 26sin67.38 Problem attached

I'm getting .99, but I am highly doubting it is that..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{24}{\sin(67.38)}=\frac{26}{\sin(x)}\] is a start

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

24sinA=26sin(67.38) 24sinA=23.99999 /24 /24 sin(a)=.99

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or better yet \[\frac{\sin(67.38)}{24}=\frac{\sin(x)}{26}\] so you get \[\sin(x)=\frac{26\sin(67.38)}{24}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and so \[x=\sin^{-1}(\frac{26\sin(67.38)}{24})\]

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

Oh, I see what I'm doing lol, calculator is being stupid,,

looks like about 89.92 degrees http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=arcsin%2826sin%2867.38%29%2F24%29

OpenStudy (lukecrayonz):

89.9~~=90
