Question

Solve for side BA (show your work)

Answer 1

Answer:

BA = 25.5961

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for side BA, we need to use the correct trigonometric function that relates (from the perspective of angle B) side AC and BA.

AC is Opposite of angle B

BA is the Hypotenuse

The function we use here is Sine. Sine is:

Sin(θ) = Opposite/Hypotenuse

So we simply substitute our information to solve.

Sin(62) = 22.6/BA

BA = 22.6/Sin(62)

Typing this into our calculator we get:

BA = 25.5961

(This is rounded to 4 decimal places)
