Given: AABC, AC = 5
m C = 90°
m A= 22°
Find: Perimeter of AABC
A
C
B

Sagot :

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  perimeter ≈ 12.4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The side adjacent to the angle is given. The relationships useful for the other two sides are ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

From these, we have ...

  opposite = 5·tan(22°) ≈ 2.02

  hypotenuse = 5/cos(22°) ≈ 5.39

Then the perimeter is ...

  P = a + b + c = 2.02 + 5 + 5.39 = 12.41

The perimeter of ∆ABC is about 12.4 units.
