Here, sin y = P /H
sin y = 9 / 17
sin y = 0.52
y = sin⁻¹(0.52)

For exact value, you need to round off 0.52 to 0.50
y = sin⁻¹( 1/2 )
y = 30 [ 'cause, sin 30 = 12 ]

Your final answer is 30 degrees.

Hope this helps!

This is a right triangle, and for y, you're given the opposite side and the hypotenuse. Which trigonometric function is that?

The Westwood Warriors basketball team wants to score more points. To get better at scoring points the team is trying to improve

Answer:

It is better for the warriors to use man-to-man defense.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is: The Westwood Warriors basketball team wants to score more points. To get better at scoring points the team is trying to improve its offensive strategies. Some opponents primarily use a zone defense, while others primarily use a man-to-man defense. When the Warriors play against teams that use a zone defense they score an average of 67 points per game with a standard deviation of 8 points per game. When they play against teams that use a man-to-man defense they score an average of 62 points per game with a standard deviation of 5 points per game.

Since the Warriors started using their improved offensive strategies they have played two games with the following results.

Against the McNeil Mavericks

Maverick defense: zone

Warrior points: 77

Against the Round Rock Dragons

Dragon defense: man-to-man

Warrior points: 71

What is the Z-score of these values?

We are given that when the Warriors play against teams that use a zone defense they score an average of 67 points per game with a standard deviation of 8 points per game. When they play against teams that use a man-to-man defense they score an average of 62 points per game with a standard deviation of 5 points per game.

We have to find the z-scores.
