OpenStudy (aaronq):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C= A/H

OpenStudy (aaronq):

hm but you don't know the value of the hypotenuse

@feezul_93 help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ik im trying to better understnd it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, sry, was watching others just now, wait aa :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

once again, we use trigonometry, since we are looking for x which is opposite to angle, we will use tan, TOA |dw:1362076830261:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tan(tetha) = opposite/adjacent tan(35) = X/23 0.7 = X/23 0.7 x 23 = X X = 16.1 question ? :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tips of choosing which trigo we need to use is 1) see where's the angle 2) see where's given length 3) see where's length we want to find then, refer to 2 and 3, use SOH/CAH/TOA to which 1 suite your problems the best :)
