Answer:

a) 24 degrees

b) 50 degrees

Explanation:

part a : use sine-1

sine-1 =
(opposite)/(hypotenuse)

sine-1 =
(17)/(42)

sine-1 = 0.405

missing angle = 23.89

round to the nearest degree = 23.89 = 24

part b : use cosine-1

cos-1 =
(adjacent)/(hypotenuse)

cos-1 =
(16)/(25)

cos-1 = 0.64

missing angle = 50.208

round to the nearest degree = 50.208 = 50
