PLEASE HELP!!!! The class was given this problem and asked to solve for "x". Craig says that x = 11/cos(37). Laura disagrees and says that x = 11/sin(53). Who (if anyone) is correct?

Answer:

both

Explanation:

they are both correct. sin and cosine are complements (90-x) of each other ( that's where cosine gets its name).
