Question 301577: in right triangle ABC, AB=20, AC=12, BC=16, and the measurement of angle c=90 degrees . find the measure of angle A. Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! To find angle A, you can use either of the following:
sin(x) = 16/20
or
cos(x) = 12/20
In any case, I got angle A = 53.13 degrees.
