Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse is 4.1 in

Explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle of the problem

The function sine of angle of 80 degrees is equal to divide the opposite side to the angle of 80 degrees (4 in) by the hypotenuse

Let

x ----> the hypotenuse

so

sin(80°)=4/x

isolate the variable x

x=4/sin(80°)

x=4.1 in
