Solving a right triangle (ROUND TO THE NEAREST TENTH)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kay [80]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Subtract the sum of the given angles from 180 for B

B = 180° - (90 + 40)° = 180° - 130° = 150°

--------------------------------------------------------------

sin40° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{a}{21}

Multiply both sides by 21

21 × sin40° = a, thus

a ≈ 13.5 ( to the nearest tenth )

--------------------------------------------------------------

cos40° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{b}{21}

Multiply both sides by 21

21 × cos40° = b, thus

b ≈ 16.1 ( to the nearest tenth )
