Since this is a right triangle, we can use one of the three main trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, tangent.

Remember: SOH-CAH-TOA

From the angle, we know the opposite side and want to figure out the adjacent side. Therefore, we should use the tangent function.

tan(35) = 6/RS

RS = 6 / tan(35)

RS = 8.6

Hope this helps!
