Find c, the hypotenuse, rounded to four decimal places, in a right triamgle with b=16 and B=55 degrees?

a) 11.2033

b) 19.5330

c) 22.6274

d) 27.8951

In order to calculate the value of the hypotenuse we use knowledge on trigonometric functions. For this case, we can use the sine function. We do as follows:

sin 55 = 16 / c

c = 19.5330

Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
