Question

Find an obtuse angle whose sine is a) 0.25 b) 0.75 c) 0.875 d) 0.3465

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 165.52 degrees.

b)  131.41 degrees.

c)  118.96 degrees.

d)  159.73 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sine of an obtuse angle is positive as it is in the second quadrant.

a) Using a calculate the angle whose sine ( arcsin) is 0.25  = 14.478 degrees

so the obtuse angle  = 180 - 14.478 = 165.52 degrees to nearest hundredth

b) c) and d) are calculated in the same way.
