Question

Find the value of the trig functions indicated

Answer 1

D. ⅘

Explanation:

According to the acronym for trig ratio, SOHCAHTOA, we know that:

`sin (\theta) = (opposite)/(hypotenuse)`

In the triangle given,

Opposite = √(20² - 12²) = √256 = 16

Hypotenuse = 20

Thus:

`sin (\theta) = (16)/(20)`

Simplify

`sin (\theta) = (4)/(5)`
