Oooooh! 
Okay, thanks soo much. I am really starting to understand it now.
#2 Re: Help Me ! » Finding the measure of the angle labeled X? » 2008-11-23 11:46:04
Oooh! I thought so! & yeah, it does. Thanks!
Okay so here's what I have so far:
2.3/5 = .46
Now how do I find out what X is ? X can't be .46...lol. I am getting it slowly!
#3 Re: Help Me ! » Finding the measure of the angle labeled X? » 2008-11-23 10:19:25
So wait...I do 2.3/5? I get .46. Ack, this is soo confusing.
Okay, so I have to find the tangent right? The tangent of what number? Eh, sorry I'm confused.

I know how to find sides, but angles can be tricky...here's the problem:
I have to find the measure of the angle labeled X. Help?
#5 Re: Help Me ! » Ack! Tangents? Cosines? Sines? What is this stuff?! » 2008-11-23 08:52:45
Okay, thanks! That really helped.

Sorry to double-post, but I think I am getting it more now.
However, how do I set it up? Do I do .8090/4.5? or 4.5/.8090? Eh!

Thanks for the nice welcome! Ah, I don't really 'hate' it, but I do like it once I get to knowing how to do it. LOL, then it's pretty easy. Thanks!
#8 Re: Help Me ! » Ack! Tangents? Cosines? Sines? What is this stuff?! » 2008-11-22 07:53:56
Okay, I'll try that. Thanks you guys!

Hey you guys; I need some help on this hw problem...see, we're learning about tangents & cosines & stuff; but I am not grasping it *I was homeschooled last year, & I did ALGEBRA not this geometry, LOL!* so, I am trying to understand it easier.
Any help is appreciated.
Here's the problem:
It says 'Find the length of the missing side labeled x. Show your work.
Here's the pic of the problem, as I can't draw triangles on here very well:
Do you do a2+b2= C2?
or C2= a2+b2? Eh! & how do you convert the degrees or tell if it's a cosine, tangent or sine or not?
Thanks!
