You have to use trig, that is sine, cosine or tangent. However, your description of the triangle was not enough.
\n" ); document.write( "sin(angle) = opposite side/hypotenuse
\n" ); document.write( "cos(angle) = adjacent side/hypotenuse
\n" ); document.write( "tan(angle) = opposite side/adjacent side
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
