Answer:

Michelle’s house is 44 miles to Richard’s house.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance can be found out by using the trigonometric ratio of sine theta

Sine theta= Perpendicular/ Hypotenuse

We know the values of hypotenuse and theta

Sine 30 = 22/ Hypotenuse

Hypotenuse= 22/ sine 30

Hypotenuse= 22/0.5

Hypotenuse = 44

The hypotenuse marks the distance between Michelle’s house to Richard’s house. Due east means counter clockwise rotation from east.
