For any angle "" (theta):

Sine Function: sin() =

From your diagram

1
Using Sine Rule sin() =

opposite = 10ft hypotenuse = s

a) as the function of s

Since sin() =

So sin() =

() =

b) Finding () when s = 52 feet


=
= to 5 decimal places
=

c) Finding () when s = 26 feet


=

2
= to 5 decimal places
=

Note:
