BRAINLIEST ASAP! PLEASE HELP ME :)

Answer 1

Answer:

≈11.54°.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can using trig. If we know that the drawbridge is 60 yards long and the raised end is 12 yard above, we can create an equation using sin.

We can do:

$\frac{12}{60}=sinx$

To solve, we can take the inverse, giving us:

$sin^{-1} \frac{12}{60}= x$

Plugged into the calculator, this gives us:

≈11.54°

Answer 2

Answer:

11.54°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle with the hypotenuse of 60 and the opposite side of 12

We can use sin theta

sin theta = opp/ hypotenuse

sin theta = 12/60

Taking the inverse of each side

sin ^-1 sin theta = sin^-1 (12/60)

theta = 11.53695903

to the nearest hundredth

theta = 11.54
