<u>Given </u>that the length of the hypotenuse is 8 and the angle is 42°
The length of the one leg of the triangle is x.
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
The value of x can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.
Thus, we have;
Substituting the values, we get;
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 8, we get;
Simplifying, we get;
Therefore, the value of x is 5.35(app.)
Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
