Answer:

36.50

To two decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothenuse side in a right angle triangle has 58cm. While the angle touching one of its leg is 51°. How long is that leg.

From the right angled triangle, the size of the leg touching the hypothenuse is the adjacent side of the triangle, hence in trigonometry, the cosine rule is used, because it involves the adjacent and the hypotenuse.

Cos 51°=x/58

Let the size of the leg be x

Making x the subject

x=58(Cos51°)

x=36.500058

Correct to two decimal place

x=36.50

Answer:

let \: the \: angle \: be \:  \alpha  \\  \tan( \alpha )  =  \frac{p}{b}  \\  \tan(16.8) =   \frac{2.7}{x}  \\ x =  \frac{2.7}{0.30 }  \\ x = 9 \\ now \: by \: using \: pythagoras \: theorem \:  \\ h =  \sqrt{p {}^{2} }  + b {}^{2}  \\ h =  \sqrt{ {2.7}^{2} }  +  {9 }^{2}  \\ h = 9.396
