Algebra.Com's Answer #526307 by indra89811(24)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the length of the slide be x ft\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For an angle A, sin A = Height/Hypotenuse \n" ); document.write( "Height=26 feet and Hypotenuse is the length of the slide (x)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "sin 36.5=26/x\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x=26/sin 36.5\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x=43.71\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hence, the length of the slide=43.71 feet\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "---------------------Peace----------------------- :) \n" ); document.write( " |
