Problem 1

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(18) = x/25
25*cos(18) = x
x = 25*cos(18)
x = 23.7764129073789
x = 23.78

x = 23.78

=====================================================

Problem 2

theta = greek letter that looks like a "zero" or the letter O with a horizontal line through it

With the reference angle of theta, the opposite side is 3. This side is the leg furthest from the angle theta. In contrast, the side 4 is the closest leg to theta. The longest side 5 is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is always the lonest side

sin(theta) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(theta) = 3/5

cos(theta) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(theta) = 4/5

tan(theta) = opposite/adjacent
tan(theta) = 3/4

---------------------------

In summary:
sin(theta) = 3/5
cos(theta) = 4/5
tan(theta) = 3/4

=====================================================

Problem 3

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(x) = 15/29
x = arccos(15/29) .... inverse cosine or cos^(-1) also works
x = 58.852610078491
x = 58.85

x = 58.85

=====================================================

Problem 4

The rule we'll use is
sin(x) = cos(90-x)

sin(theta) = cos(90-theta)
cos(90-theta) = cos(58)
90 - theta = 58
90 - theta+theta = 58+theta
90 = 58+theta
90-58 = 58+theta-58
32 = theta
theta = 32

32

=====================================================

Problem 5

x = height of pole

the vertical side is the side we want, which is the opposite side compared to the angle 55 degrees

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(55) = x/25
25*sin(55) = x
x = 25*sin(55)
x = 20.4788011072248
x = 20.5

Each pole is roughly 20.5 feet tall.

=====================================================

Problem 6

The exact value is the fraction sqrt(3)/2 which can be written as

"sqrt" is shorhand for "square root"

Ithink it’s b, hope this .
