Ok. so which trigonometric ratio would mean the ratio of \[\frac{ 9 }{ x }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
use sine theorem
OpenStudy (anonymous):
note sin(90)=1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait what lol sorry guys im not that great at this :(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Missaa143 at least you are aware that there is something called sin x, cos x etc etc etc ?

yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok, let's consider the first one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
use pythogorean theorem to find hypothenuse (the longest side of right triangle)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hypothenuse^2=5^2+x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):
hypothenuse/sin(90)=x/sin(42)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Missaa143 so you know which side divided by which side is cos of any angle?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay gotcha!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
or you can go directly, x/sin(42)=5/sin(90-42)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
u can also use Tan of 42 = x / 5.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
true! ^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ill say the first one is 3.3 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ x }{ \sin(42) }=\frac{ 5 }{ \sin48 }\]

no it will be 4.5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ooooo okay i get it!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in 2nd one you have hypotenuse = x, and base = 9.
So which trig. ratio means base/hypotenuse?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think its D ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think it would be easier if you use tan(42)=x/5 => x=5tan(42)
