please check my work will give medal, fan, and testimonial if you'd like and if i have already i'll give you a medal and thank you (lol) anyway thanks in advance have a great afternoon (or whatever time it is where you live) :]
are you trying to find the length of AC ?
no.. I'm trying to find the measure of the angle A
ok use SOH CAH TOA
I already did my equation above like I was told to ^ not sure if I did it right but I did it.
|dw:1427743505528:dw|
So I do it using sin = opposite/hypotenuse and not using cosec 0 = hypotenuse/opposite? I know how to solve it but I don't know which one to use (hope that made sense)
use sin
cos will give u angle of C
but your missing the bottom length of AC so it wont work.
Okay I did it right the first time then. Okay well my first answer was 0.006981260298 how do I round this to the nearest tenth? I don't need to find AC it's not asked yet.
It tells me to find the measure of angle A and B first and then it asks me to find the length of AC but I already know how to do that I'm just stuck on the angles.
so the <A is 24 degrees.
how did you get that answer?
sin^-1(2/5) => 24 deg
OMG I totally forgot about that xD OMG I'm laughing so hard i forgot you have to turn 4 -> 2 and 10 -> 5 so WOW of me thank you! That explains why I kept getting a weird answer XD alright one last question for angle B would it also be sin? @arjund12
just do <B = 90 - <A
so you get <B = 90 - 24 => 66 deg
okay yeah but I have to show my work and which I chose so I need to pick sin, cos, tan, etc..
use cos because you have adj and hypo lengths.
alrighty thanks so much!! :] have a great day/night/afternoon/evening/morning
thanks you to.
