Answer:
9.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
5^2+8^2 = c^2
25 +64 = c^2
89 = c^2
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(89) = sqrt(c^2)
9.433981132 = c
To the nearest tenth
9.4
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
A good trick for trigonometric functions is to remember SOHCAHTOA:
Sin=<u>O</u>pposite over <u>H</u>ypotenuse
Cos=<u>A</u>djacent over <u>H</u>ypotenuse
Tan=<u>O</u>pposite over <u>A</u>djacent
The red arrows on the attachment indicate where opposite, hypotenuse, and adjacent are for angle A.
So in this case, the sin of angle A (opposite over hypotenuse) would be and cos A (adjacent over hypotenuse) would be
.
I hope this helps!
