At what angle, or slope in degrees will the hypotenus of this triangle ly?
\n" ); document.write( "The vertical leg measures 29\"
\n" ); document.write( "The hypotenuse measures 63\"
\n" ); document.write( "One angle of the triangle is 90 degree
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "Draw the picture of the triangle.
\n" ); document.write( "slope = rise/run
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "run = sqrt(63^2-29^2) = 55.93 inches
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "slope = 29/55.93 = 0.5185
\n" ); document.write( "=====================================
