Acronym to remember the 3 basic trigonomic functions:
Soh - Cah - Toa
opposite
sin = --------------------
hypotenuse
adjacent
cos = -------------------
hypotenuse
opposite
tan = -----------------
adjacent
In your case, you can set up a sine trigonomic function, like this:
Sin 48 = 10 (adjacent)
-----
x (hypotenuse)
10
(x) Sin 48 = ------ (x)
x
(x) Sin 48 = 10
-------------- -------------
Sin 48 Sin 48
Plug in 10(sin)(48) into a calculator.
x = 7.43
I just realized that you didn't ask me to find the answer, but now you will know even more than you need to :D
The fraction 1/3 means 1 out of 3 equally divided parts, so 12 needs to be equally divided into 3 groups. Have students divide the 12 stars into 3 equal groups. Each of the 3 equally divided groups is 1/3 of the total. Thus, 1/3 of 12 is the number in 1group, or 4.
