Question

Instructions: Find the missing side. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. stion 54° 29 х

Answer 1

Recalling the definition of the sine of an angle in a right triangle, we know that:

$\sin (54)=\frac{x}{29}$

Isolate x from this equation:

$x=29\sin (54)$

Use a calculator to find the numerical value of x:

$x=23.46149284$

Therefore, to the nearest tenth:

$x=23.5$
