do you know sin45 = ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

value numeric

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

no clue ^^

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

why you needed learning it sure

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

ok but hope you know that the sinus of an angle is equal opposite side divide hypothenuse yes ?

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

\[10=\sqrt{2}*x\] \[x=\frac{ 10 }{ \sqrt{2}}\] \[x=\frac{ 10 }{ \sqrt{2} }*\frac{ \sqrt{2} }{ \sqrt{2} }\] \[x=\frac{ 10\sqrt{2} }{ 2 }\] \[x=5\sqrt{2}\]

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

@jhonyy9 ive never done that before

"but hope you know that the sinus of an angle is equal opposite side divide hypothenuse"

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

sin45 = sqrt2 /2

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so than using this you can rewriring it sqrt2 x ---- = ----- 2 10 cross multiplie 10sqrt2 = 2x divide by 2 and will get x = 5sqrt2 right ?

OpenStudy (phi):

yes, you did it correctly. Jhonny is using trigonometry, which you have not studied yet

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

thats my next lesson...... :D cool so i understand it :DD ty @phi @jhonyy9
