Answer:
The measure of angle N to the nearest degree is 28 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question, we shall be needing a diagrammatic representation of the triangle. Please check attachment for this.
To calculate the angle N, we shall be making use of trigonometric identities. From the diagram we see that we have the hypotenuse ( the longest side and the side facing the angle 90) and also the opposite ( the side facing the angle N)
Thus, the correct trigonometric identity to use here is the Sine
Mathematically, the sine of an angle = length of the opposite/length of the hypotenuse
Our opposite here is 4.2 feet with our hypotenuse as 9 feet
Plugging these values, we have
Sin N = 4.2/9
Sin N = 0.46666667
N = arc sin (0.46666667)
N = 27.82 , to the nearest degree we have 28 degrees
