Question

Find the measure of angle y. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (please type the numerical answer only) A right triangle is shown with one leg measuring 8, and the hypotenuse is labeled 13. An angle made with the leg measuring 8 and the hypotenuse is marked y degrees. Answer for Blank 1:

Answer 1

Answer:

The angle is 52 degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

length of of side, L = 8

Hypotenuse, H = 13

According to the trigonometry,

$cos y = \frac{L}{H}\\\\cos y = \frac{8}{13}\\\\cos y = 0.62\\\\y = 52^0$
