Question

What is the length of side YZ to the nearest tenth please show your work!

Answer 1

Length of side YZ to the nearest tenth is 16 ft

To solve this question we would use the sine rule. The sine rule states that

A/sin a = B/sin b

if we take our angle a to be XZY, and b to be ZXY.

Going by angles in a triangle, ZXY = 180 - 90 - 35 = 55. This means that our angle b is 55º

applying the sine rule, we have

11/sin 35 = B/sin 55

11/0.5736 = B/0.8192, if we cross multiply, we have

B = (11 * 0.8192)/0.5736

B = 9.0112/0.5736

B = 15.7 ft
