\[z=\sin^{-1} \left( \frac{ 12 }{ 13 } \right)\]\[y=\sin^{-1} \left( \frac{ 5 }{ 13 } \right)\]

how do i type that into my calculator....i use this calculator http://www.calculator.net/scientific-calculator.html

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12 / 13 = asin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i get z=67.38 i get y=22.61

OpenStudy (anonymous):

woo hoo!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rounding the two angles should sum to 90

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think im typing it in wrong i take 12/13=0.923 then i do the asin and that's what i get i did the same thing for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's correct, but you sould round your answers so that y + z - 90 exactly. z = 67.38, y = 22.62

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooh ok so it would just be 67 an d22

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean 23

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no... 67 + 22 = 89 not 90. you could do 67 and 23, or 67.4 and 22.6, or 67.38 and 22.62, etc.

Ok thanks so much for the help:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
