Question

Help with special right triangle please

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the right angle triangle that contains x and y, we would apply trigonometric ratio to determine x an y. Taking 60 degrees as the reference angle,

Hypotenuse = y

Adjacent side = x

Opposite side = 36

Therefore,

Sin # = opposite side / hypotenuse

Sin 60 = 36/y

y = 36/Sin60 = 36/0.8660 = 41.57

Cos # = adjacent side/hypotenuse

Cos 60 = x/41.57

x = 41.57Cos 60 = 41.57 × 0.5 = 20.785

Sin45 = z/36

z = 36Sin45 = 36 × 0.7071 = 25.4556
