Math Problem Statement

Find the unknown sides and angles in each triangle given in the images using trigonometric rules. Give your answers to the specified decimal place or nearest degree.

Solution

Let's go through each problem step-by-step to find the required values for xx. I'll calculate the unknown sides and angles using trigonometric rules, mainly the Sine Rule and the Cosine Rule.

1. Top Left Triangle:

  • Given:

    • 84\angle 84^\circ and 32\angle 32^\circ in a triangle.
    • Side opposite 32\angle 32^\circ is 5.85.8 cm.
  • Find xx (side opposite 84\angle 84^\circ).

Using the Sine Rule: xsin(84)=5.8sin(32)\frac{x}{\sin(84^\circ)} = \frac{5.8}{\sin(32^\circ)} Solving for xx: x=5.8×sin(84)sin(32)x = \frac{5.8 \times \sin(84^\circ)}{\sin(32^\circ)}

2. Top Right Triangle:

  • Given:

    • 80\angle 80^\circ and 67\angle 67^\circ.
    • Side opposite 67\angle 67^\circ is 7.47.4 cm.
  • Find xx (side opposite 80\angle 80^\circ).

Using the Sine Rule: xsin(80)=7.4sin(67)\frac{x}{\sin(80^\circ)} = \frac{7.4}{\sin(67^\circ)} Solving for xx: x=7.4×sin(80)sin(67)x = \frac{7.4 \times \sin(80^\circ)}{\sin(67^\circ)}

3. Bottom Left Triangle:

  • Given:

    • Side lengths 66 cm and 4.64.6 cm.
    • Angle 4444^\circ.
  • Find xx (unknown angle).

Using the Cosine Rule to find xx: [ x = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{6^2 + 4.6^2 - c^2}{2 \times 6 \times 4.6
