Part A
The vertical leg of the triangle = 1.01 cm
The hypotenuse = 2.1 cm
[tex]\frac{1.01}{2.1}=0.48[/tex]
• 0.48 times as long
Part B
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin \theta=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} \\ \sin \theta=\frac{1.01}{2.1} \\ \sin \theta\approx0.48 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Part C
The horizontal leg of the triangle = 1.84 cm
The hypotenuse = 2.1 cm
[tex]\frac{1.84}{2.1}\approx0.88[/tex]
• 0.88 times as long
Part D
[tex]\begin{gathered} \cos \theta=\frac{\text{Adjacent}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} \\ \cos \theta=\frac{1.84}{2.1} \\ \cos \theta\approx0.88 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Part E
The vertical leg of the triangle = 1.01 cm
The horizontal leg of the triangle = 1.84 cm
[tex]\frac{1.01}{1.84}\approx0.55[/tex]
• 0.55 times as long
Part F
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan \theta=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}} \\ \tan \theta=\frac{1.01}{1.84} \\ \tan \theta\approx0.55 \end{gathered}[/tex]
