Question

In ΔRST, the measure of ∠T=90°, RS = 4.9 feet, and ST = 2.7 feet. Find the measure of ∠S to the nearest tenth of a degree.

Answer 1

42.43

Explanation:

This is because you had to divbide by 3

Answer 2

Explanation:

step 1. a diagram is important and can be uploaded. you will get a quicker answer with a diagram

step 2. triangle RST is a right triangle so we can use trigonometry to find <S

step 3. the adjacent side of <S is ST and the hypotenuse is RS so we will use cos

step 4. cosS = adj/hyp = ST/RS = 2.7/4.9

step 5. <S = 56.6° using inverse cos.
