Question

What is the length of AC? What is the measure of angle A? What is the measure of angle B?

Answer 1

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Find AC using Pythagorean Theorem:

AC² = 25.2² - 11.3²

AC² = 507.35

AC = √507.35

AC = 22.5 (nearest tenth)

✔️Find m<A using trigonometric ratio:

Reference angle = A

Opp = 11.3

Hyp = 25.2

Sin(A) = opp/hyp

Sin(A) = 11.3/25.2

A = sin^{-1}(11.3/25.2)

A = 26.6° (nearest tenth)

✔️Find m<B using trigonometric ratio:

Reference angle = B

Adj = 11.3

Hyp = 25.2

Cos(A) = adj/hyp

Cos(A) = 11.3/25.2

A = cos^{-1}(11.3/25.2)

A = 63.4° (nearest tenth)
