Solve the right triangle ABC, with upper equals 90 c=90

Question

Solve the right triangle​ ABC, with Upper C equals 90 degrees. C=90°.

A = 57 Degrees 16', c = 8.4 ft

n the right triangle​ ABC, with C = 90

B = 32 degrees 44'

What is is the length of side a = and of side b =

Answer 1

The side opposite the ninety degree angle (c) is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

The measure of angle B would be 180 - (angle C + angle A).

The following two equations can be used to find the lengths of the legs (a and b) of the right triangle.

Sine (angle A) = opposite side a/hypotenuse

Cosine(angle A) = adjacent side b/hypotenuse.

Similarly for the second triangle, the measure of angle A would be 180 - (angle C + angle B).

The following two equations can be used to find the lengths of the legs (a and b) of the right triangle.

Sine (angle B) = opposite side b/hypotenuse

Cosine(angle B) = adjacent side a/hypotenuse.
