Answer:
sin A = 8/17.
Explanation:
As cos A = 15/17 one leg of the triangle = 15 and the hypotenuse = 17.
The side length 15 is the adjacent side to angle A.
First find the length of other side of the right triangle, using the Pythagoras
Theorem:
Opposite side to ange A = √(17^2 - 15^2)
= √64
= 8 units.
sin A = opp side / hyp
= 8/17.
