Use these values: Let the hypotenuse be 70cm, vertical 24.5cm and 65.98cm for the horizontal. A) With a protractor measure an angle of 20 degrees using your meter stick identically to the laboratory set up previously described. What are the lengths of the horizontal leg and vertical leg of the right triangle formed? Measure these values with another meter stick. B) Calculate the horizontal leg and vertical leg of the right triangle formed in problem (A) using the following cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse and sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse C) Calculate the percent error between the calculated and recorded sides. You should obtain a small percentage

Polygon with three sides, three angles, and three vertices. Based on the properties of each side, the types of triangles are scalene (triangle with three three different lengths and three different angles), isosceles (angle with two equal sides and two equal angles), and equilateral (three equal sides and three angles of 60°). The types of angles are acute (less than 90°); obtuse (greater than 90°); and right (90°).
