Question

I don’t have a clue on how to solve this

Answer 1

WX = 7.0

Explanation:

We have to use trigonometry to solve for the side "WX".

First note, with respect to angle given 44 degrees,

The Side WX is "opposite" of the angle

The Side given "10" is the hypotenuse of the triangle [hypotenuse is the side opposite of 90 degree angle].

Which trigonometric ratio relates "opposite" to "hypotenuse"?

It is "SINE".

Now we can write and solve for WX:

`Sin(44)=(Opposite)/(Hypotenuse)\\Sin(44)=(WX)/(10)\\WX=10*Sin(44)\\WX=6.95`

Rounded to nearest 10th (1 decimal place)

WX = 7.0
