A Slide 41 M Long Makes An Angle Of 35 With The Ground Rounded To The Nearest Tenth Of A Meter How Far Above The Ground Is The Top Of The Slide class=

Answer :

By definition,

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

From the picture,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin (35)=\frac{x}{4.1} \\ \sin (35)\cdot4.1=x \\ 2.4\text{ m = x} \end{gathered}[/tex]
