A=?
B=?
C=+90° -> it is right angle triangle
a=+6 feet
b= ?
c=+95 inches -> since C=+90 degree, c is hypotenuse
c%5E2=a%5E2%2Bb%5E2
b%5E2=c%5E2-a%5E2
b%5E2=95%5E2-6%5E2
b%5E2=9025-36
b%5E2=8989
b=94.81

a%2Fsin%28A%29=c%2Fsin%28C%29
6%2Fsin%28A%29=95%2Fsin%2890%29
6%2Fsin%28A%29=95%2F1
6%2F95=sin%28A%29
sin%28A%29=0.0631578947368421
A=sin%5E-1%280.0631578947368421%29
A=3.62°
B=180-%2890%2B3.62%29°
B=180-%2893.62%29°
B=86.38°

complete the triangle
A=? B=? C= 90 degree
a= 6 feet b= ? c= 95 inches
-------------------
A=? B=? C= 90 degree
a= 72 inches
b= ? c= 95 inches
============================
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
72^2 + b^2 = 95^2
b^2 = 95^2 - 72^2 = 3841
b = sqrt(3841)
---------
sin(A) = a/c
sin(B) = b/c
