Answer: 47°

Explanation:

When given a right angle with 2 lengths and you have to calculate an angle, using Sine, Cosine or Tangent will work best.

Use Sine when given the Opposite and the Hypotenuse lengths.

Use Cosine when given the Adjacent and the Hypotenuse Lengths by and,

Use Tangent when given the Opposite and Adjacent Lengths.

The complete question includes that the side with length 17.6 cm is side BC which means that the side is the Adjacent side.

Cosine will therefore be used.

Cos (B) = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}

Cos (B) = \frac{17.6}{26}

Cos (B) = 0.6769

B = Cos^{-1} * (0.6769)

B = 47°

notsponge [240]

Answer:

* What is meant by coastal management?

coastal management is a defence technique to prevent or lower the occurrence of flooding and erosion, and ways to stop erosion from claiming lands. Protection against rising sea levels in the 21st century is crucial, as sea level rise accelerates due to climate change.

* Why is coastal management important?

The reason for coastal management is obvious, which is to protect homes and businesses from being damaged and even destroyed by coastal erosion or flooding. Failure to do so can have severe economic and social effects, especially along coastlines which are used for tourism and industry.
