Well you can tell that it's a right triangle because it is a pythagorean triple so one angle is 90 degrees! then you can use sin law if you need more help just ask

I'm afraid that I don't know how to solve for it, though. If you can, could you walk me through it, please? Thank you kindly for your help. (^_^)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ofcourse I can help!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the angle and the opposite sides correspond when using Sin Law

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 90 degrees would correspond to 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B would correspond to 12 and A to 5. Do you get that so far?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, I understand that. (^_^)

Okay okay, So sin law works like this |dw:1429154689142:dw|
