Question

Can you please help me with this?

A) 29

B) 15

C) 45

D) 8

Answer 1

A) 29

Explanation:

Step 1: Find angle G

Since Sin(θ) = Opposite over Hypotenuse:

`sin^(-1) ( 58 / (52+52) )` = θ

θ = 33.896°

Now repeat for just the smaller triangle:

`sin(33.896) = Opposite/Hypotenuse\\sin(33.896) = Opposite/52\\Opposite = sin(33.896) * 52\\Opposite = 29`
