By definition we have to:
Sin (x) = C.O / h
Where,
x = angle
C.O = opposite leg
h: hypotenuse.
Substituting values we have:
Sin (C) = AB / 82
We should look for AB. For this, we use the following relationship:
AB ^ 2 + 80 ^ 2 = 82 ^ 2
Clearing AB:
AB = root ((82 ^ 2) - (80 ^ 2))
AB = 18
Substituting we have:
Sin (C) = 18/82
Simplifying:
Sin (C) = 9/41

Answer:
the trigonometric ratio for sin C is:
Sin (C) = 9/41

Answer:

There are 38 dimes, 22 nickels and 16 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n, d and q represent the # of nickels, dimes and quarters respectively.

Then n + d + q = 76

The value of a nickel is $0.05; that of a dime is $0.10, and that of a quarter is $0.25.

Thus, the value of n nickels is $0.05n (and so on).

The total value of the coins is $0.05n + $0.10d + $0.25q = $8.90.

d = n + q allows us to eliminate d.

First, n + d + q = 76 becomes n + (n + q) + q = 76, and second:

$0.05n + $0.10(n + q) + $0.25q = $8.90. Here we have succeeded in eliminating d from two different equations, and now we have these two different equations in two unknowns (n and q), which is solvable.

Simplifying both equations, we get:

2n + 2q = 76 and

5n + 10n + 10q + 25q = 890, or 15n + 35q = 890

Let's use the substitution method of solving linear equations:

Rewrite 2n + 2q = 76 as n + q = 38, or n = 38 - q. Substituting this result into the second equation, we get:

15(38 - q) + 35 q = 890, or

570 - 15q + 35q = 890, or

570 + 20 q = 890. Then 20q = 890 - 570 = 320, and q = 320/20 = 16.

There are 16 quarters. Thus, the number of nickels is n = 38 - 16 = 22.

Finally, since n + d + q = 76, 22 + d + 16 = 76, or:

22 + d = 60, or d = 60 - 22 = 38.

There are 38 dimes, 22 nickels and 16 quarters.
