Question 262709: how do you find the degree measure of theta if 0 degrees is less than or equal to theta and theta is less than or equal to 360 degrees if the sin of theta is .8706? Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use a calculator.
Enter .8706 and press sin^-1
--> 60.5284... degrees
-----------
Calculators give the principal value.
You have to find the other one, which is 180 - 60.52
--> 119.47156... degs
There are only those 2 between 0 and 360.
