Answer: A)Sin(33)= x/14

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next trigonometric function:

sin α = opposite side / hypotenuse

Where α is the angle, the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle (in this case 14), and the opposite side to the angle is x.

Replacing with the values given:

Sin(33)= x/14

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
