Answer 1

a) x = 20, b) h = 15

Explanation:

a) 17² - 8² = x² x = 15, which is the height of the triangle, next, 25² - 15² = x²

x = 20

b) The way I would solve this is I'd find the measure of angle Q first.

a²=b²+c²-2bc cos A

39²=44²+17²-2(44)(17) cos A

-704 = -1496 cos A

inverse cos(-704/-1496) = A

A = 61.93°

Then sin 61.93 = h / 17

h = 15
