Question

NEED HELP WITH TRIG please show work as i am trying to learn the material i'm really puzzled. its soh cah toa but i don't remember how to do it

Answer 1

1. sin(31) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(31) = 34/x

x = 34/sin(31) = 66.0145369

x = 66.0°

tan(31) = opposite/adjacent

tan(31) = 34/y

y = 34/tan(31) = 56.5855024

y = 56.6°

2. tan(x) = opposite/adjacent

tan(x) = 9/12

x = 36.86989765

x = 36.9°

y = 180 - 90 - x

y = 53.13010235

y = 53.1°

z² = 9² + 12²

z² = 225

z = 15

Answer 2

see below

Explanation:

5. sin 31 = opp/ hyp

sin 31 = 34 /x

x = 34 / sin 31

x =66.0145369

tan 31 = opp /adj

tan 31 = 34/y

y = 34/ tan 31

y= 56.5855024

6. Pythagorean theorem to find z

9^2+12^2 = z^2

81+144 = z^2

225 = z^2

z =sqrt(225) =15

sin x = opp / hyp

sin x = 9/15

take the inverse sin

x = sin^ -1 (9/15) = 36.86989765

sin y = opp / hyp

sin y = 12/15

take the inverse sin

y = sin^ -1 (12/15) = 53.13010235
