X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B

Answer:
The answer to your question is
sin Ф = 0.731 and sinФ = -0.731; cos Ф 0.682 and cos Ф = -0.682
Step-by-step explanation:
tan Ф = 1.072, 0 < Ф < 2 π, tan Ф is positive, find the solution in the first and third quadrangle.
- tan Ф = opposite side / adjacent side
- 1.072 / 1 = opposite side / adjacent side
- opposite side = 1.072 and adjacent side = 1
Calculate hypotenuse
c² = a² + b²
c² = 1.072² + 1²
c² = 2.149
hypotenuse = c = 1.466
First quadrangle
sin Ф = 1.072 / 1.466 = 0.731
cos Ф = 1 / 1.466 = 0.682
Third quadrangle
sin Ф = -1.072 / 1.466 = -0.731
cos Ф = -1 / 1.466 = -0.682
The area is actually 52.5
