In a triangle, the sum of its interior angles is 180°.

A right angle measures 90°.

To find angle B:

53 + 90 + angle B = 180

143 + angle B = 180

angle B = 37

To find lengths AB and AC, you can use trigonometry (sine, cosine, tangent).

1) To find line AB:

sine = opposite/hypotenuse

sin53 / 1 = 10 / x

Cross multiply.

(sin53)(x) = 10

Divide both sides by sin53

x = 12.5213565816 → x = 12.52

Remember your calculator should be in degree mode not radian!

2) To find AC:

tangent = opposite / adjacent

tan37 / 1 = x / 10

(tan37)(10) = x

7.53554050103 = x → 7.54 = x
