a right triangle as one (h) measures 14 a base 10 and the other unknown
how do I find the measurements of the other two angles
-----
hypotenuse = 14
base = 10
-----------------
Draw the picture.
Let A be the angle formed by the base and the hypotenuse.
Then A = cos^-1(10/14) = 44.42 degrees
-------------------------------------------
The 3rd angle is 90-44.42 = 45.58 degrees
