Question

A triangle that is 3 units high, 4 units long, and has a hypotenuse of 5 units, how do you find the angles?

Answer 1

`3^2` + `4^2` = `5^2` `=>` the triangle is right angled`=>` 0ne angle is `90^0` . Smallest angle is `tan^-1` (3/4) = `36.87^0` and the other angle is `tan^-1` (4/3) = `53.13^0`

Explanation:

Use tables of inverse tan to get the angles.
