The image presents four right triangle problems where you are asked to solve for the missing sides or angles. Here's how to approach solving these problems:

### a. 
Given:
- One angle = 30°
- One leg = 8.00 m

To solve this, we can use trigonometric functions:
- \(\sin(30^\circ) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\)
- \(\cos(30^\circ) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\)

We also have the Pythagorean theorem if needed:
\[
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
\]

### b.
Given:
- One angle = 60°
- One leg = 9.00 m

Use trigonometric identities similarly to find the missing sides, employing:
- \(\sin(60^\circ)\)
- \(\cos(60^\circ)\)

### c.
Given:
- One angle = 85°
- Adjacent leg = 3.00 m

Again, use:
- \(\tan(85^\circ) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\)
- Pythagorean theorem can also help here.

### d.
Given:
- Hypotenuse = 5.00 m
- Adjacent leg = 3.00 m

Here, we can:
- Use \(\cos(\theta)\) to find the angle, where \(\theta = \cos^{-1} \left( \frac{3}{5} \right)\)
- Find the missing opposite side using the Pythagorean theorem.

5. How can trigonometric identities simplify solving real-world problems with right triangles?

**Tip:** Always label the sides of a right triangle (opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse) before applying trigonometric formulas to avoid confusion.

Solve for the missing sides or angles in the right triangle problems given.

This page explains how to solve right triangles using trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, and tangent) and the Pythagorean theorem. Suitable for students in grades 9-11, the problems involve finding missing sides and angles in triangles with known angles and sides.
