which trig ratio will be helpful in finding the missing side length?

Since we know the hypotenuse and we need to calculate the opposite side we need to use the sine function since:
[tex]\begin{gathered} sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{_{\text{ }}hypotenuse} \\ so: \\ sin(21)=\frac{x}{22} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:
sin(21)
