Find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle, in which the length of one side and one angle are given.
Length of Leg opposite = 10
One angle of the right triangle = 25*
What's the length of the leg adjacent?
-----------------
If the leg opposite is opposite the 25 deg angle:
tan(25) = opp/adj
adj = opp/tan(25) = 10/tan(25)
adj = ~ 21.445
