Designing a framework for a hoist and my meager math skills are failing me.
Frame has a right triangle in it that is 2' 9" on the base leg and 5' on the vertical leg.
A 90dg angle
B base of hypotenuse
C top of hypotenuse
a base leg
b hypotenuse
c vertical leg
Questions- What is the angle of B and C? What is the length of b?Thanks for help.
A squared + B squared = C squared. A base of 33" X 33" = 1089 ". B vertical leg of 60" X 60" = 3600". C hypotenuse 1089" + 3600" = 4689". Square root of 4689" = 68.476". Don't know about the angles. It's been thirty-five years since I had a geometry class. My daughter just came into the room .She's a college girl. Mom"s yelling at us to come to dinner! I'll try to get the angles figured out after dinner.
My stomach is full and my High School Valedictorian daughter figured out the angles. Angle at base of hypotenuse is 61.2 degrees. Angle at top is 28.8 degrees.
Thank you kind sir and kudos to your daughter.
