A right triangle is shown with one leg measuring 8 and the hypotenuse is labeled 17. An angle that is not 90 degrees is marked x. COULD THIS HELP YOU

OpenStudy (mathmale):

You are learning the trig functions, what they're for and how to use them. Which of the basic trig functions (the sine, the cosine, the tangent) applies to this case, when you know the length of the hypotenuse and the adjacent side and need to find the measure of the angle x?

OpenStudy (mathmale):

chycora is correct: This is a right triangle (one angle is 90 degrees).
