Answer:

B. 39.59

Step-by-step explanation:

So 43 degrees, you know the length of the opposite side (27) and the angle (43 degrees), the only unknown is the hypotenuse. So you're looking for a trigonometric ratio that uses the angle (all of them do, except technically the inverse don't), the opposite side, and the hypotenuse. Sine is defined as [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]. So let's plug in known values:

[tex]sin(43) = \frac{27}{x}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by x

[tex]sin(43) * x = 27[/tex]

divide both sides by sin(43)

[tex]x=\frac{27}{sin(43)}[/tex]

Normally I would use a calculator, but in this case I'll use the approximation given in the problem of 0.682

[tex]x=\frac{27}{0.682}[/tex]

simplify the fraction

[tex]x\approx39.59[/tex]
