Question

5. Find the missing reference angle using arcsin, arccos, or arc tangent. (Round to

Answer 1

Answer:

16°

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = $\theta$

Side Opposite to reference angle = 14

Adjacent side = 48

Hypotenuse = 50

Let's apply arcsin:

Thus:

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{Opp}{Hyp})$ (recall: SOHCAHTOA)

Plug in the values

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{14}{50})$

$\theta$ = 16.2602047° = 16°
