Answer:

The error is the use of wrong trigonometric ratio formula.

Sine was used instead of tangent.

It should be: [tex] tan(A) = \frac{36}{84} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Side length, 36, is opposite to <A. Side length, 84, is the adjacent side. Therefore, the right trigonometric ratio formula to use is:

[tex] tan(A) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

[tex] tan(A) = \frac{36}{84} [/tex]

[tex] A = tan^{-1}(\frac{36}{84}) [/tex]

m<A ≈ 23°

The error made was the use of wrong trigonometric ratio formula.
