Look at the picture.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

b^2=a^2+a^2\\\\b^2=2a^2\to b=\sqrt{2a^2}\\\\b=\sqrt{a^2}\cdot\sqrt2\\\\b=a\sqrt2

\sin\theta=\dfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\\theta=45^o,\ opposite=a,\ hypotenuse=a\sqrt2

substitute

\sin45^o=\dfrac{a}{a\sqrt2}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt2}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt2}{\sqrt2}=\dfrac{\sqrt2}{2}

Answer: \sin45^o=\dfrac{\sqrt2}{2}

Answer:

  • 39°
  • 27°
  • 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

Hypotenuse = 32\\Adjacent = 25\\Angle\:\alpha \:=?\\Using \: SOHCAHTOA ;\\Cos \:\alpha = \frac{adj}{hyp} \\Cos \:\alpha = \frac{25}{32}\\\\\alpha = Cos^-^1\frac{25}{32} \\\alpha =38.62\\\\\alpha = 39

2.

Opposite = 8\\Adjacent = 16\\\alpha =?\\Using SOHCAHTOA\\Tan\:\alpha = \frac{opp}{adj} \\Tan\:\alpha = \frac{8}{16} \\Tan \:\alpha =1/2\\\alpha = Tan^-^11/2\\\\\alpha =26.56\\\alpha =27

3.

Hypotenuse = 41\\Opposite = 19\\\alpha = ?\\Using\: SOHCAHTOA\\Sin\:\alpha = \frac{opp}{hyp} \\Sin \:\alpha =\frac{19}{41}\\\\\alpha =Sin^-^1 (19/41)\\\\\alpha =27.6\\ \alpha =28
