Asked by Billu
find the sine of angle V
there are two right triangles, one has unknown lengths and angles which are classified as W, V, and U, the other triangle has Line SR which has a length of 48, Line RT which has a length of 73, and Line ST which has a length of 55

First note triangle SRT is a right triangle because 48^2 + 55^2 = 2304 + 3025 = 5329 = 73^2, so RT = 73 is the hypotenuse and SR = 48, ST = 55 are the legs.
If angle V corresponds to angle R in the given similar triangle, then the side opposite that angle is ST = 55 and the hypotenuse is RT = 73, so
sin(V) = 55/73 ≈ 0.7534.
(If V instead corresponded to angle T, sin(V) would be 48/73; if V were the right angle, sin(V)=1.)
