Answer 2

where's the diagram?

Answer 3

it doesnt have one

Answer 4

or sorry it does
ill draw it

Answer 5

are there any other info. on the diagram? for example, length of sides, or measure of other angles?
draw in those measurements and we can get started...

Answer 6

sorry it took so long, the internet when down here

Answer 8

Using trigonometry you can solve for the angle since you have the sides

Answer 9

so since it is obvious which sides is larger and the hypotenuse we will use the SINE function to solve for the missing angle

Answer 10

\[sine \theta = Opposite/Hypotenuse\]

Answer 11

Plug in for what you know and solve for what you do not know and remember that you can find the angles of a triangle knowing the sides of triangle

Answer 12

the hypotenuse is 4.25 and the opposite is 4.71?

Answer 13

No the hypotenuse is the largest side of the triangle and the opposite means opposite to the angle which you are trying to find so that is correct it is 4.71 units

Answer 14

the hypotenuse is 5.79

Answer 15

correct

Answer 16

0.72 is that i got

Answer 17

The angle is ? and sine is a constant function so to solve for just ? we need to take the inverse of Sine to get rid of it on the left and place it on the right

Answer 18

\[Sin (?)=O/H\]
