ΔRST is a right triangle with m∠S = 90°. RS = 48, cos R =24/25 ; Find sin R.

a. 7/24

b.25/24

c.7/25     <<<---===  sin(R) =  =  =  =  = .


The info RS = 48 is not relevant.

They put/include it with the only goal to confuse you.

RS CANNOT = 48. It's NOT THE HYPOTENUSE!
For the life of me, is it SO, SO DIFFICULT to state a problem correctly?
How do you expect to get help if you at least CAN'T state a simple problem correctly?
