DC=30.430\approx30.4

12) In this triangle, we need to find the projection DC. Let's start out finding the height, by using a trig ratio (sine):


\begin{gathered} \sin(54)=(h)/(20) \\ h=20*\sin(54) \\ h=BD=16.18\approx16 \end{gathered}

12.3) Based on another trig ratio we can write out the following formula:


\begin{gathered} \tan(28)=(16.180)/(DC) \\ DC=(16.180)/(\tan(28)) \\ DC=30.430 \end{gathered}
