Answer:

SinQ=\frac{15}{17}

Step-by-step explanation:

We draw the right triangle as shown in the image attached.

Δ QRS

Where R is the right angle

Given

QR = 8

QS = 17

Now, using Pythagorean Theorem, we can find RS:

QR^2+RS^2=QS^2\\8^2+RS^2=17^2\\RS^2=17^2-8^2\\RS^2=225\\RS=\sqrt{225}\\RS=15

Now, we know the ratio Sine as:

Sin(\theta)=\frac{Opposite}{Hyotenuse}

Where \theta is the angle (here angle Q)

Opposite side is RS (which is 15)

Hypotenuse is given as QS (which is 17)

So,

SinQ=\frac{15}{17}

This is the value of SinQ.

We don't want the angle, so we'll stop here.

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5 = 2x + 5

3x - 5 + 5 = 2x + 5 + 5

3x = 2x + 10

3x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 10

1x = 10
