you need the hypotenuse, which you find via pythagoras do you know how to find it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no can you help me? @satellite73

OpenStudy (misty1212):

i can help you!

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the hypotenuse is \(\sqrt{7^2+24^2}=25\)

OpenStudy (misty1212):

so the sine is "opposite over hypotenuse" which is \[\frac{7}{25}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the option closest to that, that I am given is 7/25 would that work too? @misty1212

OpenStudy (misty1212):

yes that is right
