³ Problem

Find angle A of the right triangle below. Then calculate angle B and the length of the hypotenuse c. Lengths are in meters. Round results to one decimal place.

Reminder:

tan A = therefore m±A = tan-1

 

m±A + m±B + 90° = 180° therefore m±B = 90° - m±A

 

c =

To one decimal place, the measure of angle A is 66.8°, the measure of angle B is 23.2°, and the length of the hypotenuse is 7.6 meters.
