Question

In right triangle ABC, AB = 3 and AC = 9. What is the measure of angle B to the nearest degree?

Answer 1

90 degrees

Explanation:

see image

make x A

y B

z C

AB=3 (given)

AC=9 (given)

measure of angel B or y, is 90

if

x= A

y= C

z= B

then the hypotenuse would be shorter than one of the legs

3<9

so B has to be the right angle (90 degrees)
