What are the lengths of the other two sides of the triangle, and what are the degree measures of all the angles? \n" ); document.write( "------- \n" ); document.write( "Hypotenuse implies it's a right triangle. \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "What are the lengths of the other two sides of the triangle \n" ); document.write( "The height is one side of a right triangle. \n" ); document.write( "To find the 3rd side, use Pythagoras. \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "what are the degree measures of all the angles? \n" ); document.write( "One angle (call it C) is 90 degs \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "sin(A) = a/1000 = 31/1000 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "sin(B) = b/1000 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
