Check each triangle and identify if the labels are correct
The side opposite of the right angle is labelled as hyp
The side opposite of θ is labelled as opp
The side adjacent to θ is labelled as adj
The triangle is labelled correctly
The side opposite of the right angle is labelled as hyp
The side opposite of θ is labelled as opp
The side adjacent to θ is labelled as adj
The triangle is labelled correctly
The side opposite of the right angle is labelled as hyp
The side opposite of θ is labelled as opp
The side adjacent to θ is labelled as adj
The triangle is labelled correctly
The side opposite of the right angle is labelled as “opp”, but it should be hyp
The side opposite of θ is labelled as “hyp”, but it should be opp

Solving for ( i ) sin θ
First we need to identify which trig ratio to use.
One of the known lengths ( 3 ) is opposite to θ and the other length ( 5 ) is the hypotenuse
Hence, we can use the sin ratio to solve for sin θ
sin θ
=
opposite hypotenuse

Plug in the values
Solving for ( i i ) cos ( 90 - θ )
First we need to understand which angle is ( 90 - θ ) .
Notice that the two known angles of the triangle is the right angle ( 90 ° ) and θ .
Hence, the other angle left is ( 90 - θ ) .
Now, one of the known lengths ( 3 ) is adjacent to ( 90 - θ ) and the other length ( 5 ) is the hypotenuse
Hence, we can use the cos ratio to solve for cos ( 90 - θ )
cos ( 90 - θ )
=
adjacent hypotenuse

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
Identify the known values
To solve for x , we need to subtract the total value of the known angles from 180 degrees
x
=
180 ° - ( θ + right angle )
=
180 ° - ( 30 ° + 90 ° )
Plug in the values
=
180 ° - 120 °

x
=
60 °

Round your answer to the nearest degree
Incorrect
First we need to identify which trig ratio to use.
One of the known lengths ( 16 ) is adjacent to θ and the other length ( 20 ) is the hypotenuse
Hence, we can use the cos ratio to solve for θ
cos θ
=
adjacent hypotenuse

Use the inverse function for cos on your calculator to get θ by itself
θ
=
cos - 1 ( 0.8 )
The inverse of cos is cos - 1

First we need to identify which trig ratio to use.
One of the known angles ( 65 ° ) has y as an adjacent side and the other length ( 18 ) is the hypotenuse
[add purple angle fill for
65 ° ]
Hence, we can use the cos ratio to solve for y
cos θ
=
adjacent hypotenuse
cos ratio
cos ( 65 ° )
=
y 18
Plug in the values
Get y by itself to find its value
cos ( 65 ° )
=
y 18
18 × cos ( 65 ° )
=
y
Multiply both sides by 18
18 × 0.522
=
y
Evaluate cos ( 65 ° ) on the calculator

Solve for θ
Round your answer to the nearest degree
Incorrect
First we need to identify which trig ratio to use.
One of the known lengths ( 11 ) is adjacent to θ and the other length ( 9 ) is opposite to θ
Hence, we can use the tan ratio to solve for θ
tan θ
=
opposite adjacent
tan ratio
tan θ
=

Plug in the values
tan θ
=
0.818
Use the inverse function for tan on your calculator to get θ by itself
θ
=
tan - 1 ( 0.818 )
The inverse of tan is tan - 1
θ

First we need to identify which trig ratio to use.
One of the known angles ( 43 ° ) has x as an opposite side and 9.5 as an adjacent side
Hence, we can use the tan ratio to solve for x
tan θ
=
opposite adjacent
tan ratio
tan ( 43 ° )
=

Plug in the values
Now we need to have x on one side of the equation
tan ( 43 ° )

9.5 × tan ( 43 ° )
=
x
Multiply both sides by 9.5
9.5 × 0.801

First we need to identify which trig ratio to use.
One of the known angles ( 26 ° 25 ′ ) has 48 as an opposite side and the other length b is the hypotenuse
Hence, we can use the sin ratio to solve for b
