Question

I need help I'm stuck on this

Answer 1

a) The length of p is 21.4 cm

b) The measure of angle P is 45.6°

Trigonometry

From the question, we are to determine the length of p

From the Pythagorean theorem, we can write that

30² = 21² + p²

p² = 30² - 21²

p² = 900 - 441

p² = 459

p = √459

p = 21.4 cm

∴ The length of p is 21.4 cm

b)

Measure of angle P

Using SOH CAH TOA

$cos P= \frac{21}{30}$

cos P = 0.7

P = cos⁻¹(0.7)

P = 45.6°

Hence, the measure of angle P is 45.6°
