Find the value of the variable. If your answer is not an integer, leave it in simplest radical form.
same type, please try it by yourself first :)
instead of 24, its 5 here!
Look at the triangle I drew on your previous question, it's pretty much the same thing, as hartnn mentioned :p.
okay so we are using sin again i assume and 5 is the hypotenuse and x is opposite
correct!
so sin 45 = .707 as last time and .707=x/5
yup
so x= 3.535
excellent ! you did it on your own :D
so the answer in radical form would be 5sqrt2/2 right ?
thats correct.
What a pro
as a short cut, legs of a 45-45-90 triangle, is \(1/\sqrt2\) times hypotenuse. Always!

Lol thanks! i can always count on you and like i said before it's only because you taught me well that i'm starting to get the hang of it now
