Problem:
The area of the patio of a relative's house is 20 square meters.
The width of the patio is 2 meters.
What is the length of the patio?
Solution:
The area is:
A = (w) * (l)
Where,
w: width
l: long
Clearing l we have:
l = A / w
Substituting values:
l = 20/2
l = 10 meters

Answer:
Since this is a right triangle with one angle and hypotenuse given and opposite side unknown, we can use the definition of sine to find the unknown side.
sin 17 = x/hypotenuse = x/19
x = 19sin17 = 5.6
Yes because the thermometer reads temperatures higher than 2.12 degrees
