Y= __ ft

Answer 1

Solution:

We are given with a diagram of a Triangle. The triangle is a right angled triangle with Hypoteneous 15ft, angle 26.5 degree and the opposite side is y.

we have been asked to find the the value of y from the given diagram.

For the given Triangle we can write

$Sin \theta =\frac{Opposite}{Hypotaneous}$

Substitute the given values we get

$Sin 26.5 =\frac{y}{15}$

Simplify we get

$y =15* Sin 26.5$

$y =15* 0.44619$

$y =6.69285$

$y \approx 6.69$ ft
