The hypotenuse of a right triangle measures 10 inches, and the side opposite to ∠θ, one of the non-right angles, is 5 inches long.

The measure of ∠θ is?

\displaystyle\\\\\sin \theta=(5)/(10)=(1)/(2)\\ \\\implies~~\boxed{\bf m(\sphericalangle\,\theta)=30^o}

Answer:

Measure of
angle\:\theta is 30°

Explanation:

Given:

The Hypotenuse of Right Triangle = 10 inches.

Measure of side opposite to
angle\:\theta = 5 inches

We have to find Measure
angle\:\theta.

We know that,


Sine\:of\:an\:angle=(Opposite\:Side)/(Hypotneous)

So,


sin\,\theta=(5)/(10)


sin\,\theta=(1)/(2)


\theta=sin^(-1)\,((1)/(2))


\theta=30^(\circ)

Therefore, Measure of
angle\:\theta is 30°
