Angle — Rise and Hypotenuse Known
Find the angle that connects the rise and hypotenuse of a right triangle,
if the rise is 6 Feet and the hypotenuse is 10 Feet in length.
KEYSTROKE DISPLAY
1. Use trigonometric formula (divide the rise by the hypotenuse):
o o 0.
6 f ÷ 1 0 f = 0.6
2. Solve for degrees:minutes:seconds or angle:
