Remark
You are dealing with a right angle triangle. You can use one of Sin(x) Cos(x) or Tan(x). Since the Hypotenuse is involved and since you are given the adjacent side, Cos(71) is what you will need.
Solution
H = BC
Cos(x) = adjactent / hypotenuse
Cos(71) = 6.3 / H Multiply both sides by H
H * Cos(71) = 6.3 Divide by Cos(71)
H = 6.3 / cos(71) Cos(71) = 0.32557
H = 6.3 / 0.32557 Divide
H = BC = 19.351 Answer
Let x be the 1st number
x + 9 be the second number
Equation:
x + x+9 = 171
Solution:
2x + 9 = 171
2x = 171 - 9
2x = 162
x = 81
x + 9 = 90
81 + 90 = 171
W=-21 Move the four over to the 24 leaving you with negative 20 and then “subtract” one
