Algebra.Com's Answer #136256 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! I have a right triangle with side a=7 and side b=5. What is the value of sin A? \n" ); document.write( "------------------ \n" ); document.write( "You need to solve for \"c\" which I assume is the hypotenuse. \n" ); document.write( "c = sqrt(7^2 + 5^2)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c = sqrt(49 + 25)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c = sqrt(74) \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "If c is the hypotenuse, sin(A) = a/c = 7/sqrt(74) \n" ); document.write( "======================================================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
