Question 601063: Referring to the figure, find the sine of angle R.Reduce the answer to the lowest terms.
((there is a right triangle the top corner is an R, below that there is a 6 and below that there is a T, the hypothenuse is a 10, the far corner is a
S, the horizontal line has an 8)) i hope u understand my little figure.

sin(theta) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(R) = ST/SR

sin(R) = 8/10

sin(R) = 4/5
