Aright triangle has an angle that measures 34 and the adjacent side measures 17. what is the length of the hypotenuse to the nearest tenth?
f. 20.5
g. 25.2
h. 30.4
j. 34

20.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label the vertices ABC as in the diagram below. Then

Data:

α = 34 °

β = 90 °

c = 17

Calculation:

cosα = AB/AC

Multiply each side by AC

ACcosα = AB

Divide each side by cosα

AC = AB/cosα = 17/cos34 ≈ 17/0.8290 ≈ 20.5

< coa = 150 ( given)

as ba and bc are tangents

so oc and oa is perpendicular to cb and ab respectively because in circle normal passes through centre

so in quadrilateral oabc

< coa + < oab + < ocb + < abc = 360

150 +90+90 + < abc = 360

330 + < abc = 360

< abc = 360 -330 = 30

so < abc = 30
