please help I will give brainliest fr!

Answer 1

Answer:

JS is about 69.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the given side length JW = 67 is opposite to the given angle S = 44º. JS is adjacent to angle S, so we use the tangent function to solve for JS:

$\tan 44^{\circ} = \frac{JW}{JS}\\\\\tan 44^{\circ} = \frac{67}{JS}\\\\JS = \frac{67}{\tan 44^{\circ}}\\\\JS = 69.3805$

Round JS to the nearest tenth, 69.4.

Answer 2

Answer:

JS is approx. 69.4

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is close to a 45-45-90 triangle. So you then know the answer should be close to 67 because the other side is the same. This leaves us with JS=64.7 and JS=69.4. Another rule says that the side with the smaller angle is greater. 69.4 is greater.
