Question

Given the following triangle find side AC.

A. 11.89
B. 12.87
C. 13.98
D. 14.08

Answer 1

The answer to your question is AC = 14

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must use trigonometric functions.

And we must look for a trigonometric function that relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse.

This trigonometric function is the sine

`sin\alpha = (opposite side)/(hypotenuse)`

solve for Opposite side = AC

AC = hypotenuse x sin α

- Substitution

AC = 25 x sin 34

- Simplification

AC = 25 x 0.56

- Result

AC = 14
