Question

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUICK 1. What is the measurement of PQ

Answer 1

12.72 units

Explanation:

Recall the mnemonics: SOHCAHTOA

We want to find PQ, which is opposite to the 58° angle.

So we use the sine ratio: SOH , which means Sine is Opposite/Hypotenuse

`\sin(58 \degree) = (PQ)/(15)`

This implies that:

`PQ = 15 \sin(58)`

We substitute the value for sin58° to get:

`PQ = 15(0.848)`

PQ=12.72
