First off, I was just moved up a grade (about 2 week ago) and the class is studying trigonometry.
I have a triangle:
Hyp = 10m
Opp = 4m
Adj= Unknown
Feta = Unknown
And I need to find feta.
?
Well, I have tried a lot of random things lol.
E.g: sin-1 (10x4)
Well, that's actually about it.
I also have another question. Exactly from the revision sheet.
By using a radar beam. an observer at A determinses that a plane at B is 2000 metres away (AB=2000) Use the information given to calculate the height of the plane above the horizontal [tex]\overline AC[/tex] The angle is 50 degrees. I know the answer is 2000xsin 50, but how do I know t is sin? The teacher gave me the answer, but I don't know how she came up with sin :(
Please help,
