Question

In a right triangle STR, angle T and R are complementary angles. The value of cos(T) is 9/41. What is the value of sin(R)?

Answer 1

Answer: C) 9/41

Step-by-step explanation: From the description, angle S is the right angle. Which means that angles T and R are complementary (they sum to 90 degrees). Because they are complementary, this means the cosine of one angle is equal to the sine of the other angle. If cos(T) is 9/41, then so is sin(R).
