Question

a triangle has it side as r is 53 degree which is hypotenuse t opposite which is 14 s is adjacent find r and s

Answer 1

To find t the hypotenuse we use sine

sin 53° = 14/t

t = 14/sin 53°

t = 17.53

Since we have both hypotenuse and the opposite we use Pythagoras theorem to find s

(17.53)² = 14² + s²

s = √17.53² - 14²

s = 10.55

t = 17.53 s = 10.55

Hope this helps.
