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

 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 t
