Find the length of side w.

Mathematics

4 0

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find this other side given an angle and a side, we will use a trigonometric function. The three basic ones are sine, cosine, and tangent. You can remember these and what what they are using the mnemonic "soh cah toa".

SOH: Sine= Opposite/Hypotenuse

CAH: Cosine= Adjacent/Hypotenuse

TOA: Tangent= Opposite/Adjacent

We see that the sides involved are the opposite and hypotenuse.

Therefore, we can write this equation.

sin40= w/28

We multiply both sides by 28 to isolate the w.

28×sin40=w

Now, we find the sine of 40 on our calculator and then we multiply it by 28.

w≈18

Therefore, the answer is 18 cm.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

Find the area of the top ( circle) then multiply by the height.

Area = pi x r^2

Area = pi x 7^2

Area = 49pi

Volume = 49pi x 15

Volume = 735pi cubic cm.

Q5 Q31.) Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the missing side of the right triangle. Then find the value of each o
Neporo4naja [7]

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = sqrt(c^2 - b^2) = sqrt (20^2 - 16^2)

= 12

sin\theta = a/c = 12/20

= 3/5

cos\theta = b/c = 16/20

= 4/5

tan\theta = a/b = 12/16

= 3/4

csc\pi = c/a = 20/12

= 5/3

= 1 2/3

sec\pi = c/b = 20/16

= 5/4

= 1 1/4
