Question

Can someone please explain why I got it wrong and how I can do it right next time
(Picture in comments)

Answer 1

notice, the angle is between the hypotenuse and the 7-long leg
sine = o/h
what's the opposite side of that angle anyway?

Answer 2

5?

Answer 3

yeap, the opposite side, is the side facing off the angle
thus \(\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{5}{\sqrt{74}}\)

Answer 4

Ok

Answer 5

And then that would equal .58?
