Question

Find m A.) 76 degrees
B.) 14 degrees
C.) 13 degrees
D.) 77 degrees

Answer 1

The correct answer is A) 76 degrees

Explanation:

In order to solve the equation for mT, we can use trigonometric functions. Since we are given the side adjacent to the angle and the hypotenuse, we'll use cos.

Cos(α) = ADJ/HYP

Cos(α) = 4/17

Cos-1(α) = .235

α = 76 degrees
