- [Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA
- [Right Triangles Only] sinθ = opposite over hypotenuse
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Identify
Angle θ = 35°
Opposite Leg = x
Hypotenuse = 15
Step 2: Solve for x
- Substitute [Sine]: sin35° = x/15
- Isolate x: 15sin35° = x
- Rewrite: x = 15sin35°
- Evaluate: x = 8.60365
- Round: x ≈ 8.6
