Question 75002: HI can you help me with this problem?
my triangle on the problem is a right triangle and has an hypotenuseof 16 and an adjacent of 73 degrees what is x equal to on the opposing side adjacent to 73 degrees? Please respond. Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! my triangle on the problem is a right triangle and has an hypotenuse of 16 and an adjacent of 73 degrees what is x equal to, on the opposing side adjacent to 73 degrees?
:
"on the opposing side adjacent to 73 degrees?" is rather ambiguous, it's either
opposite or it's adjacent. I am going to assume it means the side opposite to
73 degrees is x
:
You can use the sine of 73 degrees which is side opposite over hypotenuse:
:
Sin(73) =
:
.9563 =
:
x = .9563 * 16
:
x = 15.3 degrees
