Answer: The ratio is 2.39, which means that the larger acute angle is 2.39 times the smaller acute angle.
Step-by-step explanation:
I suppose that the "legs" of a triangle rectangle are the cathati.
if L is the length of the shorter leg, 2*L is the length of the longest leg.
Now you can remember the relation:
Tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)
Then there is one acute angle calculated as:
Tan(θ) = (shorter leg)/(longer leg)
Tan(φ) = (longer leg)/(shorter leg)
And we want to find the ratio between the measure of the larger acute angle and the smaller acute angle.
Then we need to find θ and φ.
Tan(θ) = L/(2*L)
Tan(θ) = 1/2
θ = Atan(1/2) = 26.57°
Tan(φ) = (2*L)/L
Tan(φ) = 2
φ = Atan(2) = 63.43°
Then the ratio between the larger acute angle and the smaller acute angle is:
R = (63.43°)/(26.57°) = 2.39
This means that the larger acute angle is 2.39 times the smaller acute angle.
Area is base times height, so take the 12 and 16 and multiply them, you will get 192 which is your answer
12 x 6 x 3 =216. He can dress himself up in 216 different ways.
