In the right triangle ABC, angle C measures 90 degree. The length of leg AC is 7 and the length of the hypotenuse AB is 12.
\n" ); document.write( "a)Find, to the nearest degree, the measure of angle A.
\n" ); document.write( "sin(A) = 7/12
\n" ); document.write( "A = 36º
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "b)Find, to the nearest integer, the length of BC.
\n" ); document.write( "BC^2 = 12^2 - 7^2 = 95
\n" ); document.write( "BC = ~ 10
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
