My answers and the question are both in the image As always will give you, your medal for helping me :]

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

sin A, tan A, and cos B are all incorrect. Did you solve for the missing side using the Pythagorean theorem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@StudyGurl14 all my answers are all wrong that's why I need someone to check and tell me what I did wrong so I can redo it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and If i did it correctly the missing side is 2?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

The missing side is not 2. Pythaogrean Theorem: \(\Large a^2+b^2=c^2\) c = 2, a = 1. Solve for b.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohhhh Okay I see and yeah I know what the Pythaogrean Theorem is but I put the equation all wrong Okay so is it: 1 then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@StudyGurl14

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

No, it's not 1.

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

\(\Large a^2+b^2=c^2\rightarrow (1)^2 + b^2 = (2)^2\rightarrow b^2 = 4 - 1\rightarrow b=?\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oops I forgot about the (^2) okay so its 3

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you should have \(\Large b^2 = 3\). So what is the value of b itself?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do I find the sqrt of 3? sorry if I'm a bit slow this is the hardest geometry I've done so far so I don't get it so much.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

correct, b is sqrt(3) |dw:1427934383787:dw|
