Could someone help with a trig question?
Right angle triangle oriented with the right angle in the bottom left. At the top is a 37 degree angle and the hypotenuse is 15 miles long what is the length of the bottom side?

You use the sine function, Sin(37)=Opposite side/Hypotenuse=.601815023152=Opp/15, then the Opposite side=.601815023152 x 15=9.02722534728, which is the bottom side.
