Answer:

8.8 yards

Explanation:

Se the attached worksheet. Use the sine function. Sin(Q) = Opposite/Hypotenuse.

Sin(43⁰) = (6 yards)/r

r = 8.8 yards

Answer:

r ≈ 8.8 yd

Explanation:

using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin Q =
(opposite)/(hypotenuse) =
(RS)/(QS) =
(q)/(r) ( substitute q = 6 , ∠ Q = 43° )

sin43° =
(6)/(r) ( multiply both sides by r )

r × sin43° = 6 ( divide both sides by sin43° )

r =
(6)/(sin43) ≈ 8.8 yd ( to the nearest tenth )
