A right triangle has a hypotenuse of length 9 inches If one
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of length 9 inches. If one angle is 33degree, find the length of each leg. The length of the shorter leg is j j inches, and the longer leg is inches. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
Solution
In the right triangle
for one leg
sin33= a/h= a/9
a= 9 sin30
a=4.9
for other leg cos33=b/h
cos33=b/9
b=9cos33
b=7.6 answer
