Do you want awnser?

anonymous · Answer

No, I know the answer, I just don't know how to get there. If that makes sense??

igigighjkl · Answer

I used a calculator because I don't know this grade.

anonymous · Answer

Okay, what did you put into the calculator and what did you get?

freckles · Answer

This is a calculator question. Just make sure your calc is in degree modes and put in sin(48).

anonymous · Answer

Ohh!! Wow!! Thats so easy! Thank you!

anonymous · Answer

What if there is no degrees mode? Is there an alternate I could use to find the sine
?

anonymous · Answer

Oh, nvm the scientific mode has it too

freckles · Answer

let me know what you get and I will check it 
remember round to nearest thousandth

anonymous · Answer

Alright, I got sin 48° ≈ 0.743

anonymous · Answer

Wouldn't that be to the thousandth?

freckles · Answer

sounds great

freckles · Answer

yep that 3 is the thousandths digit

freckles · Answer

and since the number in the ten thousandths digit was less than 5 we leave the 3 as is
