You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Not clear; no angle is directly across from the right angle. The hypotenuse is directly across from the right angle.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 20 unit bottom leg is either opposite your angle theta or is one of the sides holding your angle theta.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "ASSUMING your bottom segment is the 20 unit leg, and right angle on the left, and your theta on the right, then:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"system%28cos%28theta%29=20%2F25%2Csin%28theta%29=y%2F25%2C+20%5E2%2By%5E2=25%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and you can finish finding what you need.\r
