Answer 2

are you familiar with trig ratios?

sin(theta) = opposite/hypotenuse

since you are given theta = 37, hypotenuse = 16, you can solve for the opposite

lmk if you're getting stuck

Answer 3

What would be the equation?

Answer 4

do I put sin(37/16)?

Answer 5

16 is the hypotenuse so it doesn't go within the sin expression

sin(37) = x/16

then just multiply both sides by 16 to get x = 16sin(37) = plug this into a calculator, make sure its in degrees mode

Answer 6

or just use wolframalpha.com

Answer 7

So it would be 9.63?

Answer 8

good

Answer 9

Thank you.

Answer 10

When you try to figure out the hypotenuse do you use Tan?

Answer 11

nah, tan(theta) = opposite/adjacent

so you can't use tan, it doesn't include the hypotenuse at all

Answer 12

Oh okay let me ask another question.
