Answer:
(b) 15.32
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use your triangle sense to answer this.
The side x will always be shorter than the hypotenuse, 20. This eliminates the last two choices.
If the angle is 45°, then the sides are equal at about 0.707 times the length of the hypotenuse. That would make them 0.707×20 = 14.14. Since the angle is greater than 45°, the opposite side will be greater than 14.14. Only one answer choice fits between 14 and 20: the second choice -- 15.32.
__
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relation ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
sin(50°) = x/20
x = 20×sin(50°) . . . . multiply by 20 to find x
x ≈ 15.32 . . . . . . . . . use your calculator to evaluate

Expand both factors and collect like term
Using Pascal' triangle with n = 6 to obtain the coefficients
1 6 15 20 15 6 1
Decreasing powers of 1 from to
Increasing powers of 3x from to
= 1. + 6.

+ 1.
= 1 + 18x + 135x² + 540x³ + 1215 + 1458
