Sin14=x/48
If you’re solving for x Isolate x on both sides by multiply 48 on both sides You need a calculator if you want an exact answer though
Yeah, I got 11.61?
Uhh I got something different D: 47.549
Bro what
It would be inserted as 48sin14
So you were supposed to get \(48sin(14)=x\)
Yeah
Yuh
Hmm Is your calculator in radians or degrees
Degrees
Ah i was in radians
You’re right
A guy wire attached to the top of a radio antenna is bolted to the ground 48 m from the base of the tower. If the wire makes an angle of 14 degrees with the ground, how high is the radio antenna? Express your answer to 2 decimal places. a. 8.00 b. 10.02 c. 11.97 d. 14.35 e. 17.96
I keep getting 11.61 and I just CAN'T GET THIS??!
Either I'm going crazy or this problem is incorrect SOH CAH TOA It's Sin.

Opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse
Ah It’s not sin Use Tan The 48 is the distance from the ground, so it’s adjacent and you’re solving for opposite (I know that the first sentence is confusing it confused me too) I’m on mobile so I can’t draw it D:
Bruh 11.967 so 11.97
C -.-
Thank you
