Write a function called pythag. It should take two inputs: - Side1 - Side2 The lengths of two sides of a right triangle that are not the hypotenuse. It should return 3 outputs: - Hyp – The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. - a1 – The angle at the meeting of Side1 and the hypotenuse in radians. - a2 – The angle at the meeting of Side2 and the hypotenuse in radians. You may the built-in functions sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, and atan useful.

Write a function called pythag. It should take two inputs:
- Side1
- Side2
The lengths of two sides of a right triangle that are not the hypotenuse. It should return 3 outputs:
- Hyp – The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle.
- a1 – The angle at the meeting of Side1 and the hypotenuse in radians.
- a2 – The angle at the meeting of Side2 and the hypotenuse in radians.
You may the built-in functions sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, and atan useful. 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Introduction

Pythag:

The lengths of the first and second sides of a right triangle serve as the first and second inputs of the pythag function, which has three outputs:

Hyp - The triangle's hypotenuse's length.
The angle, measured in radians, where Side 1 and the hypotenuse meet.
The angle, measured in radians, where Side 2 and the hypotenuse meet.
The hypotenuse length and angles are calculated by the function using trigonometry and the Pythagorean theorem. According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two other sides. The angles in radians are found using the trigonometric functions.
