Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean thm. says a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

The hypotenuse, c = 17

Leg b =8

a^2=c^2-b^2

a^2=17*17-8*8

a^2=289-64

a^2=225

Take the square root of both sides.

a = 15

Which equation can be used to find the length of Line segment A C? Triangle A B C is shown. Angle A C B is 90 degrees and angle

taurus [48]

Answer:

AC = 10sin(40°)

Explanation:

The diagram representing the question is shown in the attached image

Since the given triangle is a right-angled triangle, we can apply the special trig functions

These functions are as follows:

sin(θ) = opposite / hypotenuse

cos(θ) = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan(θ) = opposite / adjacent

Now, in the given diagram:

θ = 40°

AC is the side opposite to θ

AB = 10 in is the hypotenuse

Based on these givens, we will use the sin(θ) function

Therefore:

$sin(40) = \frac{AC}{10}\\ \\AC = 10sin(40)$
