Question

Find the length of BC, last one

Answer 1

The Answer to the Length of BC is 90

Answer 2

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

Remember: SOH-CAH-TOA

Looking from the given angle, we know the opposite side and want to know the adjacent side. Therefore, we should use the tangent function.

tan(54) = 16/BC

BC = 16/tan(54)

BC = 11.62 units

Hope this helps!
