Use a table of trigonometric values to find the angle θ in the right triangle in the following problem. Round to the nearest degree, if necessary.

Question

sin θ = 0.1736 O = ? H = 11

Answer 1

To find the angle θ in the right triangle, we can use the inverse sine function. Given that sin θ = 0.1736, we can find θ by looking up the inverse sine of 0.1736 in a table of trigonometric values. Rounding to the nearest degree, the inverse sine of 0.1736 is approximately 10 degrees. Therefore, θ is approximately 10 degrees.
