Question
Transcribed Image Text:In the image provided, there is a labeled right-angled triangle, △ABC. Here are the detailed features of the diagram for educational purposes:
1. **Vertices**: The triangle has three vertices labeled as A, B, and C.
2. **Sides**:
- The vertical side from point A to point C (denoted as AC) is labeled with the length of 16 units.
- The hypotenuse of the triangle runs from point A to point B (denoted as AB).
- The horizontal side from point C to point B (denoted as CB).
3. **Angle**:
- There is a right angle (90 degrees) at vertex C.
- The angle at vertex B is given as 66 degrees.
This diagram is useful in understanding and solving right triangle-related problems, including those involving trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean theorem. The length of AC and the angle measurement at B provide enough information to determine all other sides and angles in the triangle.
