Question

Can someone pls helpppp ASAP this is due in 25 min :(

For the right triangles below, find the values of the side lengths d and a.
Round your answers to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

a = 1.4 and d = 6.9

Explanation:

To get the value of d and a, we will use the SOH CAH TOA identity

For the first tringle;

Opposite = d ((opposite angle 60 degrees)

Adjacent = 4

Tan theta = opp/adj

Tan 60 = d/4

d = 4tan60

d = 4(1.732)

d = 6.9

For the second triangle;

Opposite = a

Hypotenuse = 2

Since sin theta = opp/hyp

Sin45 = a/2

a = 2sin45

a = 2(0.7071)

a = 1.4

Hence a = 1.4 and d = 6.9
