Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Right triangle

hypotenuse = 24

Opposite side = 15

Adjacent side = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the adjacent side using the Pythagorean theorem.

          hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

-Solve for adjacent side

          Adjacent side² = hypotenuse² - opposite side²

-Substitution

           Adjacent side² = 24² - 15²

-Simplification

           Adjacent side² = 576 - 225

           Adjacent side = 351

-Result

           Adjacent side = 18.73°

2.- Find the value of x°

a) Using sin x

              sinx = Opposite side/Hypotenuse = 15/24 = 0.625

                  x = 38.68°

b) Using cos x

              cos x = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse = 18.73/24 = 0.78

              cos x = 38.68°

c) Using tan x

              tanx = Opposite side / Hypotenuse = 15/18.73 = 0.80

             tan x = 38.68°

Answer:

    The career planning process is ongoing and sequential. Since it is fluid rather than chronological, you move to the next step only when you are ready to do so, and you may move back and forth between steps at any given time. The career planning process is also cyclic. When career change is desired anytime during your work life, you may repeat the process once again. Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that the majority of members of the labor force will make three to four major changes in their career during their 35 to 45 years of working. Because human beings are complex, each of us has unique aspirations, goals, potential for development, and limitations. Although we can follow the same process, career planning outcomes must be individualized.
