Define the sine ratio in a right triangle.

Back

The sine of an angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the hypotenuse: sin(θ) = opposite/hypotenuse.

Front

In triangle ABC, if angle A = 90°, angle B = 51°, and side AC = 8.8 feet, how do you find side AB?

Back

Use the sine ratio: sin(B) = opposite/hypotenuse, where opposite = AB and hypotenuse = AC.
