Find hypotenuse using sine function given one side length and angle

In this example, we are given a side length and angle find the hypotenuse length in a right triangle. We label the sides of our triangle (opposite opp and hypotenuse hyp) based on the indicated angle. Then we choose the correct trigonometric trig function (sine sin or cosine cos) based on SOHCAHTOA to set up an equation. We then solve down the resulting equation to get an exact solution and use our calculator in degree mode to find an approximation. Each part of this process is explained and written out step-by-step.
