Need to be taught how to do this, thanks

x = 36.27

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the steps to find sin θ backwards, we can find x, the hypotenuse.

sin θ = or side (as seen in my example picture).

We already know the value for sin (α), which is 32° because its given. The opposite side (a) is 20 and the hypotenuse side (c) is x which are both also given.

So the equation now looks like:

sin 32° =

Don't solve for the sin 32 yet! First, we have to isolate the variable.

To get rid of the x in the denominator you have to multiply both sides by x:

( sin 32 ) · x = ( ) · x

( sin 32 ) x = 20

Then, you have to divide both sides by sin 32 to get x by itself:

(( sin 32 ) x ) ÷ ( sin 32 ) = 20 ÷ ( sin 32 )

x = 20 ÷ ( sin 32 )

Lastly, you have to use a calculator to find 20 ÷ ( sin 32 ), and it should give you 36.2695543766.

The question asks you to round to 2 decimal places so:

x = 36.27

step-by-step explanation:

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
