Question

7 and 12 Find the measure of angle x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (please type the numerical answer only) (30 Points!!)

Answer 1

Answer:

Angle Y = 35.69 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use some simple trigonometry to help us out. Here we know that side 7 is the opposite side relative to angle y, and  12 is the hypotenuse.

We think what trig ratio involves comparing opposite and hypotenuse. Sine is opposite over hypotenuse and we can set up a equation to solve.

Sine (Angle Y) = Opposite Side / Hypotenuse

Sine (Angle Y) = 7/12

(Angle Y) = Sine inverse (7/12)

Angle Y = 35.69
