1. **State the problem:** We need to find the length $m$ of the side opposite the $39^\circ$ angle in a right-angled triangle where the hypotenuse is 60.
2. **Formula used:** In a right triangle, the sine of an angle is the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the hypotenuse:
$$\sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$$
3. **Apply the formula:** Here, $\theta = 39^\circ$, opposite side = $m$, hypotenuse = 60.
$$\sin(39^\circ) = \frac{m}{60}$$
4. **Solve for $m$:** Multiply both sides by 60:
$$m = 60 \times \sin(39^\circ)$$
5. **Calculate $\sin(39^\circ)$:** Using a calculator,
$$\sin(39^\circ) \approx 0.6293$$
6. **Find $m$:**
$$m = 60 \times 0.6293 = 37.758$$
7. **Round to 1 decimal place:**
$$m \approx 37.8$$
**Final answer:** $m = 37.8$
