Question from David:

Could you please tell me the height of a right angle triangle when the base measurement is 4930mm and the base/hypotenuse angle is 10 degrees.
this will help a lot.

thanks

David

Hi David,

triangle

I called the height h millimeters. What trig function related the length of the opposite side h and the length of the adjacent side 4930 mm?

If you need more help write back,
Harley
