Question

In ΔPQR, what is sin Q written as a decimal?

Answer 1

Sin Q = oppo. / hypo
sin Q = 9/15
sin Q = 0.6

Answer 2

Hi there!

The sine of an angle is opposite over hypotenuse. Looking at angle Q, we know the opposite side is 9 and the hypotenuse is 15. These numbers give us this equation: sin Q = 9/15. Upon solving this equation, the result is approximately 56.5.

Hope this helps!! :)
