What are the missing angle measures in triangle ABC 14 and 886 186 and 714 355 and 545 444 and 456 class=

Respuesta :

35.5° and 54.5°

solve though tangent 

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

∠[tex] A+ [/tex]∠[tex] B=90 [/tex] ------> by complementary angles

so

Step [tex] 1 [/tex]

Find the measure of angle B

we know that

[tex] tan\ B=\frac{opposite\ side\ angle\ B}{adjacent\ side\ angle\ B} [/tex]

in this problem

[tex] opposite\ side\ angle\ B=7in\\ adjacent\ side\ angle\ B=5in [/tex]

so

[tex] tan\ B=\frac{7}{5} \\ \\ B=arc\ tan\frac{7}{5} \\ \\ B=54.5\ degrees [/tex]

Step [tex] 2 [/tex]

Find the measure of angle A

[tex] A+B=90\\ A=90-B\\ A=90-54.5\\ A=35.5\ degrees [/tex]

therefore

the answer is the option

35.5° and 54.5°
