In right triangle JKL, ∠L is a right angle, m∠J=62∘, and JK=17.

Question

sin62∘≈0.88
cos62∘≈0.47
tan62∘≈1.88
Triangle J K L as described in the text.

What is the measurement of JL?
If necessary, round your answer to one decimal place, like this: 42.5

Answer 1

I HAVE NO IDEA! I've tried different methods and all, and it's just not making sense

Answer 2

JL/17 = cos62°
better review your basic trig functions, yeah?
