Question

Anyone can help me with math for solving for a side in the right triangles for khan academy

Answer 1

Answer:

7.45

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a right triangle with one side length known and an angle know so we can use some trigonometry.

You need to find the hypotenuse so you are going to use either sine or cosine.

Since the adjacent from the angle is given (SOH-CAH-TOA) we can use cosine so,

cos(20) = 7/h

=>h = 7/cos(20)

=> 7.44924

=> 7.45
