Okay, notice one thing right off the bat? 60 degrees on a right triangle (unit circle w/ terminal arm) will create the infamous 30-60-90 triangle.
We can use this to our advantage. Since sin is the y-coordinate on the unit circle. We need to solve for the longest side of a 30-60-90 triangle.
We find that the long side (y) of our 30-60-90 triangle is sqrt(3)/2. Since this is in quadrant 1, we know it is positive.
So -- sin60° = sqrt(3)/2
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
C is the hypotenuse (or AB if they write it that way). The hypotenuse is the longest side and is always across from the right angle in a right triangle.
Answer:C
Step-by-step explanation:
You convert 17.5 to a decimal that is 0.175 and 0.175 as a fraction is 7/40
