the moon forms a right triangle with the earth and the sun during one of its phases, as shown below:

a scientist measures the angle x and the distance y between the sun and the moon. using complete sentences, explain how the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the earth and the moon.

answer:

sin(x°)y

step-by-step explanation:

given in the question that,

the moon forms a right triangle with the earth and the sun during one of its phases

to calculate the distance between the earth and the moon, we will use trigonometry identity.

sinф = opposite / hypotenuse

here hypotenuse is distance between sun and moon

        opposite isdistance between earth and moon

sin(x°) = distance between earth and moon / y

distance between earth and moon = sin(x°)y

x+y = 29, 5x + 2y = 100

step-by-step explanation:

i'm guessing it was a multiple first option was the correct answer

i believe the answer is 68cm

step-by-step explanation:

i just took 34 x 2 because the space between v and y is the same as y to k.
