Question

Please help! Find the remaining parts of the right triangle having side a = 12 and side b = 16.
Give the results properly rounded off.
B =

Answer 1

u already gave us what B is?

Answer 2

may b use the Pythagorean theorem! 12^2 + 16 ^2 = B^2
then 400 = B^2
20 = B

Answer 3

Hmm... My options are:
a. 52 degrees
b. 37 degrees
c. 49 degrees
d. 41 degrees

Answer 4

oh! you want the angle measurement! i thought you needed the side! ok! 1 sec!

Answer 5

use the tangent function...tanB = 16/12
then B = inverse tan(1.33) = 53... A seems like the closest one!

Answer 6

Thanks so much!
