Question

Solving Right Triangles:
Find the side indicated by the variable. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Explanation

It seems like you are to use trig functions to find the missing sides.

Sin(what degree angle you have) = opposite of the angle over the hypotenuse

cosine (what degree angle you have) = adjacent (side that is next to angle that isn't hypotenuse) over hypotenuse

tangent (what degree angle you have) = opposite side from angle over adjacent side to angle

for number 1:

sine59 = d/ 37

cross multiply

sin59 multiplied by 37 which equals 31.7

so this means d is 31.7

use the trig functions to find the rest. it is just a pattern and SOH-CAH-TOA will help.
