Question

which ratio represents sin x in the right triangle shown below?
4 which ratio represents the cosine of angle a in the right triangle below?

1. 2) 3) 4)
2. 2) 3) 4)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the sine formula

In a right - triangle, \(\sin x=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\).

Step2: Identify the opposite side and hypotenuse for angle \(x\)

The side opposite to angle \(x\) is \(28\), and the hypotenuse is \(93\). So, \(\sin x = \frac{28}{93}\).

Answer:

\(\frac{28}{93}\)
