find White to the nearest hundredth 

Transcribed Image Text:The image depicts a right triangle labeled \( \triangle PQR \), which is drawn on graph paper.
- **Vertices:**
- \( P \) is at the origin of the triangle.
- \( Q \) is the horizontal vertex.
- \( R \) is the vertical vertex above \( Q \).
- **Sides:**
- The base \( PQ \) measures \( 8 \, \text{m} \).
- The angle \( \angle QPR \) is \( 20^\circ \).
- **Additional Information:**
- \( RQ \) is the vertical side, while \( PR \) is the hypotenuse.
This diagram is likely used to illustrate concepts related to trigonometry, such as calculating lengths of sides using sine, cosine, or tangent functions, given an angle and one side.
