Hello can u help me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jack1):

ummm yes, do u know the sine rule

OpenStudy (jack1):

@aprilann143 ...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what would i do first?

OpenStudy (jack1):

so the sine rule states \[\huge \frac a{\sin A} = \frac b{\sin B}\] si in your triangle, what do you thing a, A, b and B will be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

22

OpenStudy (jack1):

which? a? A? b? or B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure im confused?

OpenStudy (jack1):

\[\huge \frac a{\sin A} = \frac b{\sin B}\] so did u se the first picture i posted? so sub those values into the equation above, and solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=53

OpenStudy (jack1):

yep a = 54 A = 77 b = x B = 22

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok how u get 54?

OpenStudy (jack1):

|dw:1399468385487:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But it says 53 not 54

OpenStudy (jack1):

|dw:1399468421626:dw|

OpenStudy (jack1):

sorry, yep, ur right, my bad (typo) a = 53

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (jack1):

so \[\huge \frac a{\sin A} = \frac b{\sin B}\] \[\huge \frac {53}{\sin A} = \frac x{\sin B}\] \[\huge \frac {53}{\sin 77} = \frac x{\sin 22}\] can u solve from here ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no what do i do

OpenStudy (jack1):

so on ur calculator, what is sin 77 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sin 77=09

OpenStudy (jack1):

to 5 digits though?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait what?

OpenStudy (jack1):

sin 77 doesnt = 9 what's sin 77 (round the answer to 5 decimal places)
