Question

For A I somehow got 41.05 but its 2.95cm can someone show me the working and what I did wrong?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). tan(75°) = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}$

                  = $\frac{11}{k}$

    k = $\frac{11}{\text{tan}(75)}$

    k = 2.947

    k = 2.95 cm

b). cos(52°) = $\frac{16}{s}$

    s = $\frac{16}{\text{cos}(52)}$

    s = 25.988

    s ≈ 25.99 cm

c). sin(5°) = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

               = $\frac{16.1}{q}$

    q = $\frac{16.1}{\text{sin}(5)}$

    q = 184.727

    q ≈ 184.73 cm
