In triangle ABC, angle C is straight, BC = 8, sin A = 0.4. Find AB.

In a right-angled triangle, the sine of its acute angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the hypotenuse.

SinBAC = BC / AB.

AB = BC / SinBAC = 8 / 0.4 = 20 cm.

Answer: The length of the hypotenuse AB is 20 cm.
