The diagram above is a triangle XYZ whose area is 23.5cm
2. XY =1Ocm and YZ = 8cm, calculate θ correct to the nearest degree.
-
A.
34o
-
B.
35o
-
C.
36o
-
D.
37o
-
E.
40o
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
Area = 1/2 x y x yz sinθ
23.5 = 1/2 x 10 x 8 sinθ
sinθ =
23.5 x 2/10 x 8
= 0.5875
θ = sin
-1 0.5875 = 36
