Answer:
1. 7.3
2. 33.3
3. 21.3
4. 31.9
5. 25.6
6. 11.0
7. 42°
8. 64°
9. 13°
10. 51°
Explanation:
make sure if you're using a math calculator that it is in degree mode.
SIN, COS, OR TAN. SOH CAH TOA. Sin is Opposite/hypotenus.
Cos is Adjacent(next to it)/hypotenus.
Tan is Opposite/Adjacent.
~~
PROBLEM 1:
So we have 63°, 16 as hypotenus, and x as one of the legs.
1. Figure out whether it is Sin, Cos, or Tan. (It's adj and hyp. of the angle degree (63° listed so it's cos.)
2. Once you set it up, it is Cos 63°= x/16 then flip it around. which makes it 16 COS 63= X.
3. Input it into your calculator as 16cos(63, then it will give you.. 7.263847996
4. Don't forget to round to the nearest tenth, which gives you
x = 7.3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 2:
Given: 39°, 27 is opposite of the °, and adj is x. So this is Tan.
1. Set it up, Tan 39° = 27/x can't solve this way so fix it.
2. rewritten as X = 27/tan39
3. round ur answer.
x = 33.3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 3:
Given: 49°, adj is 14, hyp is x. So this is Cos.
1. Set up according to CAH, Cos 49=(14/x).
We can't solve it this way since the X is on the bottom. So we have to fix it!
2. Turns into X Cos 49 = 14, which then turns into X= 14/cos49.
3. Put it in your calculator as 14 DIVIDED BY cos 49. ( Put image example)
4. Round.
x= 21.3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 4:
Given: 15°, 33 hyp, adj x. Which is Cos.
1. Cos 15= x/33 and rewrite.
2. Input as 33 cos(15 into calculator = 31.875...
3. Round to tenth.
x = 31.9
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 5:
Given: 52°, 20 adj of °, and x opp of °. Will use TAN.
1. Tan 52° = x/20
2. 20 Tan(52 into calculator
3. Round
x = 25.6
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 6:
Given: 27°, opp of ° is 5, hyp is x. Will use Sin.
1. Write out as I have the last few times, Sin 27 = 5/x rewrite cause x can't be at the bottom.
2. Input into calculator as: 5/sin 27 which equals 11.01...
3. Round.
x = 11.0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 7:
Given: x°, 6 as hyp, 4 opp. now we have to solve this different since we don't know the degree. Now when we input into the calculator you will press 2nd, then sin/cos/tan so it will be negative this is depending on which one ur solving for.
We will be using SIN, x is still a °.
1. Sin X = 4/6 Rewrite.
2. X= Sin^-1 (4/6)
Make sure ur sin is negative in calculator when doing this.
3. It SHOULD give you 41.81, round.
x = 42°
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 8:
Given: x°, 29 opp, 14 adj. TAN.
1. Tan x°= 29/14 or..
2. X = Tan^-1(29/14) solve..
3. gives u 64.23.... round.
x = 64°
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 9:
Given: x°, hyp 54, opp 12. SIN
1. Sin x°=(12/54)
2. X= Sin^-1(12/54) solve. (dont put x= into calculator.)
3. Don't Forget to round, answer unrounded: 12.839..
x = 13°
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PROBLEM 10:
Given: x°, adj 25, hyp 40. COS
1. Cos x°=25/40 rewrite.
2. X= Cos^-1(25/40) Solve.
3. Round.
X= 51°
