Find The Measure Of Side C M Round The Answer To The Nearest Whole Number class=

Sagot :

Answer:

c = 28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have a right triangle with shortest side (a) of length 17 m and smallest angle (A) equal to 37 degrees and positioned opposite side (a).  The sine function is applicable here:

 17 m

---------- = opp / hyp = sin 37 degrees = approximately 0.602.

    c

Then 17 m / c = 0.602, or (after inverting both sides)

  c             1

-------- = -----------

17 m      0.602

Solve for c.  Cross-multipying, we get 0.602c = 17 m.

Dividing both sidees by 0.602 yields c = 28.24 m, which should be rounded off to the nearest whole number:  c = 28 m
