Answer 1

Answer:

5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We use right triangle XVW.

For <W, VX is the opposite leg.

WX is the hypotenuse.

The trig ratio that relates the opposite leg to the hypotenuse is the sine.

$\sin W = \dfrac{opp}{hyp}$

$\sin W = \dfrac{VX}{WX}$

$\sin 43^\circ = \dfrac{VX}{8~mi}$

$VX = 8~mi \times \sin 43^\circ$

$VX = 5.5~mi$
