Answer:

66.42° between height and hypotenuse

23.58° between base and hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the concept of cosine and sine, we know that cosine of an angle is equal to the adjacent divided by hypotenuse.

Similarly, sine of an angle is given by opposite divided by hypotenuse

Tangent is given by opposite divided by adjacent

In rhis case, we use cosine

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac {6}{15})=66.4218215217982\\\theta\approx 66.42^{\circ}

Therefore, the angle between the hypotenuse and height is 66.42°

To find the angle between base and hypotenuse, since it is a right angle triangle then the other angle will be 90-66.42=23.58°

Joe drove 538 miles in 9 hours 15 minutes. what was his average speed per hour
Lynna [10]
I am not sure but I think you have to multiply 538 and 9 and get 4842 then divide 4842 by 15 and get 322.8. ( I am not sure if I'm right ).
