1)hypotenuse is 12, an angle is 12 degrees, find the side opposite the angle

Use the sine here...the opposite side is ....   12*sin(12)

2) 2)hypotenuse is 32, an angle is 65 degrees, find the side adjacent to the angle

Here, we can use the cosine   ...... the adjacent side =   32*cos(65)

You should be able to take it from there....
