Question

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP I WILL FAN AND MEDAL!!

Sin x = 2/5

Answer 1

you want the angle whose sin has a value =2/5
so look inverse sin on calculator =23.57 deg.

Answer 2

So the answer is 22.57?

Answer 3

I'm solving the measurement of a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 5 and a opposite of 2 so the equation would be Sin X= 2/5

correct?? @jamaica25

Answer 4

@Data_LG2 @mathmate can either of you help please!!!

Answer 5

yes that's right : sin=opposite/hypotenuse

get the inverse sin of both sides and you'll get x=23.58 degrees ^_^

Answer 6

THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!

Answer 7

@Data_LG2 could you help me with one more please

Answer 8

sure, i'll try :D

Answer 9

Tan X= 2/1
Basically this is the same question as before just with tan instead of sin

Answer 10

Since tan(theta)=2/1
to find the angle, you look up \(\rm tan^{-1}(\frac{2}{1})\)
It should be more than 45 degrees because tan(45 degrees) = 1.

Answer 11

thank you so much you two are life savers

Answer 12

You're welcome! :)
