Answer:
BC = 15.01
Explanation:
Solve this question using a trigonometry ratio, which you can remember them all with SohCahToa, which says:
sinθ = opp / hyp
cosθ = adj / hyp
tanθ = opp / adj
θ means the "angle of reference" (angle we are talking about).
In this problem, θ is A = 65°,
To decide which trig. ratio to use, find out which sides we want to use. We will use AC = 7 because we know it.
We also use BC because we need to find it.
In relation to ∠A or θ, AC is adjacent and BC is opposite.
The ratio with adjacent and opposite is tangent.
tanθ = opp / adj Substitute the variables for this question
tanA = BC / AC Substitute the values you know
tan65° = BC / 7 Rearrange this and isolate C
BC = 7tan65° Multiply 7 and tan65 to find the missing side
BC = 15.011548...... Exact answer on your calculator
BC ≈ 15.01 Round to nearest hundredth
