How do I solve the right triangle with these as given?
C = 90degrees, c = 12, and A = 26degrees40minutes
------------------
Draw the picture:
-----
B = 90 - (26 deg 40') = 63 deg 20'
-------
Solve for "a":
sin(A) = a/c
a = c*sin(A) = 12*sin(26.67 degree) = 5.386
----
b = c*cos(A) = 12*cos(26.67 degrees) = 10.72
