Answer:


\sin(G) = (8)/(17)

Explanation:

Given


\angle H = 90^o


FH = 8


GF = 17


HG = 15

See attachment for illustration

Required

The ratio of
\sin(G)


\sin(G) is calculated as:


\sin(G) = (Opposite)/(Hypotenuse)

From the attachment, we have:


\sin(G) = (FH)/(GF)

This gives:


\sin(G) = (8)/(17)
