1.

In a right triangle, angle B=52°B = 52\degree and the side adjacent to BB measures 15. To find the side opposite BB, which equation is correct?

2.

A right triangle has angle A=35°A = 35\degree and hypotenuse =20= 20. Find the length of the side opposite angle AA. Round to the nearest hundredth.

3.

A right triangle has angle B=60°B = 60\degree and the side adjacent to BB measures 10. Find the hypotenuse.

4.

A right triangle has angle C=45°C = 45\degree and the side opposite to CC measures 9. Find the adjacent side.

5.

In a right triangle, the side opposite angle AA measures 8 and the hypotenuse is 17. Use the inverse sine function to find angle AA to the nearest degree.
