Answer:
The length of BC is needed because it is the side opposite ∠A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the right angles triangle as shown in the attachment, we can get sin(A) without using Pythagoras theorem. Instead we will use SOH CAH TOA trigonometry identity.
According to SOH:
Sin(A) = Opposite/Hypotenuse
Sin(A) = |BC|/|AB|
Opposite side of the triangle is the side facing ∠A.
Based on the formula, we will need to get the opposite side of the triangle which is length BC for us to be able to determine sinA since the hypotenuse is given.
Note that √2 + √2 = 2√2
2/(2√2) = (√2)/2 = 0.707 (simplified)
0.707 is your answer

Answer:
<u>BC = 3.1666</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you need to know that cosine∅ = adjacent/hypotenuse. We already know that hypotenuse = 5 and that ∅ = 70*. By substituting these in you will get cosine 70* = adjacent/5. Evaluate cosine 70* on the calculator and get 0.633... Multiply both sides by 5 and get adjacent is about equal to 3.1666. Because BC is the adjacent side of the triangle, this is the length of BC.
The greatest common factor would be 1 because you need to factor both 14 and 55 so factor 14 and you get 2 and 7 factor 55 you get 5 and 11 the the GCF has to be 1

check the picture below.
notice, a function that is decreasing, namely have a negative slope, doesn't have to be negative.
