Only works for 90 degree triangles: Tangent of one the two angles that arent 90 multiplied by the adjacent side will solve for the side opposite of the angle

How can you determine that it is an acute triangle?

there will be a right angle in the triangle.


How can you use a right angle to determine the classification of another angle?

An acute angle is smaller than a right angle.An obtuse angle is larger than a right angle.^_^


How can you determine if a triangle is acute obtuse or right triangle?

If all of the angles in a triangle are acute then it is an acute triangle. If one angle is right (or 90 degrees) then it is a right triangle. If one angle is obtuse then it is an obtuse triangle.


What is the ratio that defines the cosine of an acute angle of the right angle?

It is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to that of the hypotenuse.


How do you find the angle of a right triangle with the length of two legs?

-- Like every triangle, a right triangle has three interior angles.-- Unlike any other triangle, one of the angles in a right triangle is a right angle.The other two are both acute angles.-- One acute angle is the angle whose cosine is length of one leg / length of hypotenuse-- Other acute angle is the angle whose sine is length of the same leg / length of the hypotenuse-- The length of the hypotenuse is the square root of [ (length of one leg)2 + length of other leg)2 ]

Can a triangle ever have a right angle and a acute angle?

Yes. If its a right angle there has to be an acute angle.


In a right triangle the ratio of the length of the side opposite an acute angle to the length of the hypotenuse?

sin θ : 1 = the length of opposite side to angle θ : the length of the hypotenuse


How do you use a right angle to determine the classification of another angle?

YOU can use a right angle by making it small to make it acute or you can make it big so it is obtuse


Is 80 degrees an acute or obtuse or right angle?

Acute


What angle is smaller than a right angle?

acute angle


Is an acute angle greater or less than a right angle?

An acute angle has less than 90 degrees and a right angle has exactly 90 degrees, therefore an acute angle is smaller than a right angle.
