Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The function you want to use is the sign function.

Formula

Sin(theta) = Opposite / hypotenuse

Givens

  • Theta = 5 degrees
  • Hypotenuse = 120 cm
  • Opposite = ??

Solution

sin(5) = opposite / 120   Multiply both sides by 120

120 * sin(5) = opposite.

Sin(5) = 0.0872

120 * 0.0872 = opposite

10.4587 = opposite
