Question

In ∆QRS , the nearest measure of

Answer 1

43.0 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, we are given the following sides

Hypotenuse = 82

Adjacent = 60

Required

m

Using SOH CAH TOA identity

Cos theta = Adj/Hyp

Cos mCos x = 60/82

Cos x = 0.7317

x = arccos(0.7317)

x = 42.97

Hence the value of x to the nearest tenth is 43.0 degrees
