40. Look at the figure. What is the length of side AD? (1 point) 6 cm 8.5 cm 10.4 cm 12 cm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@radar Do you mind looking at this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12cm*cos(30º) = BD 12cm*sin(30º) = AD

OpenStudy (radar):

Angle ABD is also a 30 degree angle.

OpenStudy (radar):

You can use the law of sines.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

sin 30 = AD/ 12

OpenStudy (radar):

That pretty well nails it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm still slightly confused. I haven't learned much about the law of sines yet.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

you know what a sine of an angle is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The sine is opposite/hypotenuse

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tha sum of the angles in one triangle is equals 180º |dw:1338409636260:dw| we got 90º+30º+a=180º a=60º if a = 60º a+b = 90º b=30º
