Question

PLEASE HELP.

Answer 1

250Sin(48)= 185.7862

Answer 2

http://www.mathsisfun.com/sine-cosine-tangent.html will explain why I use Sin

Answer 3

so I write it out like this?

Answer 4

just use cos (48)=250/X

Answer 5

Where x is the unknown length we are looking for.

Answer 6

@Romero is correct. :-) Thanks for helping out, mate.

Answer 7

Here is a trick
SIN
COS
TAN

SOH
CAH
TOA

where O=opposite
where A=Adjacent
where H=Hypotnus

Answer 8

Cos is not a possible answer. :O

Answer 9

Solve for X, you don't need cosine in the answer

Answer 10

What are the answer choices @computergeek123 ?

Answer 11

well you could also write the problem as tan 48=x/250 and solve that way, which would give you on of those answers

Answer 12

All of them have done it correctly . Basically, make sure you are familiar with trigonometry, this will be a cake walk for you then :D

Answer 13

So would A be the best answer to choose?

Answer 14

I would pick 250sec48 = 250/cos48, as Romero did up there.
