Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

The side opposite (the side not connected to the angle) and the hypotenuse relate the sine

Equation

Sin(y) = opposite / hypotenuse

Solution

y = 41 degrees

hypotenuse = 12

x = ?

Sin(41) = x / 12 Multiply both sides by 12

12 Sin(41) = x

Sin(41) = 0.6561

12 * 0.6561 = x

x = 7.8727
