  • The measure of a second angle is x°.
  • The length of the hypotenuse is 23.
  • The length of the leg opposite the angle with measure x° is 16.
  • A note indicates the figure is not drawn to scale.

Correct Answer: .6956,  .6957,  16/23
Rationale

The correct answer is 1623. In a right triangle, the sine of an acute angle is defined as the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse. In the triangle shown, the length of the side opposite the angle with measure x° is 16 units and the length of the hypotenuse is 23 units. Therefore, the value of sinx° is 1623. Note that 16/23, .6956, .6957, 0.695, and 0.696 are examples of ways to enter a correct answer.
