Question

Find the missing side lengths

Answer 1

u is 17√2 and v is 17

Explanation:

To find u:

`{ \bf{ \sin( \theta) = (opposite)/(hypotenuse) }}`

feed in the terms:

`\sin(45 \degree) = (17)/(u) \\ \\ u = (17)/( \sin(45 \degree) ) \\ \\ u = 17 √(2)`

To find v:

`\cos( \theta) = (adjacent)/(hypotenuse)`

feed in the terms:

`\cos(45) = (v)/(u) \\ \\ v = u. \cos(45) \\ v = (17 √(2) )÷( √(2) ) \\ v = 17`
