Answer 1

Answer:

Keep the knees and hips at 90-degree angles and the wrists straight.

Explanation:

From computer ergonomics, sitting at a desk and typing can affect the back, cause discomfort and sometimes injury. To protect the back, always sit with the knee and hips positioned at 90 degree while keeping the wrist straight and also position the equipment appropriately to always suite this posture.
