Can someone please help me with this trig question.
For a given right triangle, side a = 76.4 feet and side b = 39.3 feet What is the length of side c to the nearest tenth of a foot?
Let 76.4 be the longestest side. ( hyportinues) Let 39.3 be the base of right triangle.
so we have to find the adjacent side of right side. By Pythagoras Theorem. 76.4² = c² + 39.3² c² = 76.4² - 39.3² c² = 4261.95 c = √4261.95 c = 65.3 feet
