Question

A right triangle has side lengths that are consecutive integers and has a perimeter of 12 ft. What are the angles of the triangle

Answer 1

The 3 angles are 36.87, 53.13 and 90 degrees.

Explanation:

This right triangle ABC has sides 3, 4 and 5 units.

To find the angles:

sin A - 3/5 gives m < A = 36.87 degrees

sin B = 4/5 gives m < B = 53.13 degrees.
