Aspider was making a large web in a window. he started in the corner of the window and crawled 18 inches along the edge of the window, where he attached the beginning of the web. then he jumped over the edge of the window and started swinging until he came to rest on the side of the window, where he attached his web at a 38° angle. how long is the piece of web that the spider has made? round your answer to the nearest whole number.

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:   1. you have the following information given in the problem above:   - the spider  crawled 18 inches along the edge of the window.  -  the spider  jumped over the edge of the window and he came to rest on the side of the window, where he attached his web at a 38° angle.    2. keeping this on mind, you have:   sinα=opposite/hypotenuse  α=38°  opposite=18 inches  hypotenuse=x  sin(38°)=18/x  x=18/sin(38°)  x=29 inches  the answer is: 29 inches.
