Question 764296: I don't know how to subtract 6 degrees from 24' from 90degrees. I have to find theta first then. (((A crate is hanging by a rope. The rope is making an angle of 7deg24' with the vertical and has a tention T of 2871lbs. The horizontal rope is pulling and guiding the crate into place. Find the weight of the crate and the horrizontal rope.)))
W=T sin Theta
W = 2871 sin(90degrees - 6 degrees from 24')
W=
H= T cos theta
H = 2871 cos(90degrees - 6 degrees from 24')
H =

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
H = 2871 cos(90degrees - 6 degrees from 24')
90 degs
-6 degs 24'
================
89 60'
-6 24'
----------
83 degs 36'
= 83.6 degs
-----
H = 320.027
