Answer:
12.72 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall the mnemonics: SOHCAHTOA
We want to find PQ, which is opposite to the 58° angle.
So we use the sine ratio: SOH , which means Sine is Opposite/Hypotenuse
[tex] \sin(58 \degree) = \frac{PQ}{15} [/tex]
This implies that:
[tex]PQ = 15 \sin(58) [/tex]
We substitute the value for sin58° to get:
[tex]PQ = 15(0.848)[/tex]
PQ=12.72
