Question

Find the length of side BC.
Give your answer to 3 significant figures.
C
A
71°
B

Answer 1

Answer:

BC ≈ 19.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos71° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{AB}{BC}$ = $\frac{6.3}{BC}$ ( multiply both sides by BC )

BC × cos71° = 6.3 ( divide both sides by cos71° )

BC = $\frac{6.3}{cos71}$ ≈ 19.4 cm ( to 3 sig. figs )
