General Formulas and Concepts:

Trigonometry

  • [Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA
  • [Right Triangles Only] sinθ = opposite over hypotenuse
  • Inverse Trig

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

Angle θ = x

Opposite Leg = 4

Hypotenuse = 19

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Substitute in variables [sine]: sinx = 4/19
  2. Inverse trig: x = sin⁻¹(4/19)
  3. Evaluate: x = 12.1532°
