kashmoneyjr · Answer

think about the solution to this one http://prnt.sc/b2nv6q

ms-brains · Answer

do you mind walking me through it again, please? ^-^

kashmoneyjr · Answer

you have to use right angle trigonometry
so think about what values are important to find x and which trig function you have to use

kashmoneyjr · Answer

we know the angle is 32, the opposite side is x, and the hypotenuse is 4.2
so which function can be used?

ms-brains · Answer

I've never worked on problems like this before. o.O anything involving sin,cos,tan was not taught by my teacher.  Sorry. >3 I got no clue on solving this...

kashmoneyjr · Answer

thats unfortunate. I suggest you watch a khan academy video on right angle trigonometry, as its pretty important

kashmoneyjr · Answer

but ill give you an overview

ms-brains · Answer

Okay. Thank you!

kashmoneyjr · Answer

basically sine cosine and tangent are functions used to relate angles of a triangle with sides

in other words, if you have a right angle triangle, you can use it to solve for an angle given side lengths and vice versa
