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.

I has no idea what I am doing...

Answer 1

ew. flvs

Answer 2

kidding.

Answer 3

@rebeccaskell94 , you have to measure the angle C first.

Answer 4

And you have to measure the sides too!
using a ruler i guess..

Answer 5

Rofl. ruler

Answer 6

-____-

Answer 7

was that mean? sorry xD

Answer 8

Use an online ruler to calculate pixels :D

Answer 9

chrome has a nice add-on

Answer 10

It says "make up an angle measure and a length."
You don't have to measure it... just make dat ish up.

Answer 11

lol okay dollface give me a sec

Answer 12

the only part that bugs me is the sine,cosine,tangent.

Answer 13

Okay I made C 45º and CA 30' ?

Answer 14

Yeah, well I can't see the picture, but that is probably okay.

Answer 15

It is just a right triangle

Answer 16

What is given, by the way? Do you know the length of any of the sides?

Answer 17

Which angle is the right angle?

Answer 18

So, B is the right angle.

Answer 19

Indeed

Answer 20

Great, and you decided on this angle:

Now, before we do anything else, just tell me:
Which side is the hypotenuse:
Which side is opposite from angle C:
Which side is adjacent to angle C:
