Use a calculator to evaluate the expression arcsin017 radia

Use a calculator to evaluate the expression. () arcsin(0.17) radians Find the angle 0 In the given right triangle. () theta = radians

Solution

y = arcsin(0.17)

Use invere trigonemetric function from calculator:

y = 0.1708 = 0.171 radians

From triangle : sintheta = 6/12 = 1/2

theta = sin^-1(0.5) = pi/6 = 0.52
