Question

What is the value of sin C? a) 15/17b) 15/8c) 8/15d) 8/17

Answer 1

d) 8/17

Step-by-step explanation:

From trigonometry, we know that in a right triangle:

`\sin \theta=\frac{Opposite}{\text{Hypotenuse}}`

From the diagram:

• The side, opposite C, is 8.

,

• The ,hypotenuse, is 17.

Therefore:

`\sin C=(8)/(17)`
