Question

Determine the measure of q in sin q =0.4848 to the nearest degree.

Answer 1

see explanation

Explanation:

there are 2 possible values for q

Since sin q > 0 then q is in the first or second quadrant

sin q = 0.4848, then

q =
`sin^(-1)`(0.4848) ≈ 29° ← first quadrant

or q = 180° - 29° = 151° ← second quadrant
