Question 199615: Right triangle and the side measures are 6, 6.05 and .75
6.05 is obviously on the hypotenuse
What are the other two angles measurement?

sin is opposite/hypotenuse

So pick the 'smallest angle' and find its value as sin^(-1)(0.75/6.05) = 7.12 degrees.
Since one angle is 90, the third angle must be 90-7.12 = 82.88
