Answer:

  • C = 40°
  • c ≈ 5.79
  • a ≈ 6.89

Explanation:

The acute angles in a right triangle are complementary, so ...

C = 90° -50°

C = 40°

__

SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relations ...

Cos = Adjacent/Hypotensue

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Then ...

cos(50°) = c/9

c = 9·cos(50°) ≈ 5.79

sin(50°) = a/9

a = 9·sin(50°) ≈ 6.89
