The question asks you to calculate the value of an angle when given the hypoteneuse and adjacent.
I hope it helps and please do leave a comment below - thanks.

I have watched a number of your excellent videos. Very good modelling on the board and steady pace, working through all the steps. Some videos are too fast and are fine for A-A* students or they are aimed at Foundation. You address the middle people who are getting there. I have done a fast pace, year long, adult course to get my skills polished so I can tutor. I am an ex primary teacher. Many thanks...last paper tomorrow. Have a good summer break.

one angle is right so it is 90 degrees. so if you can find one of the other two using trig then the last angle is simply found by adding up the sum of the two angles(90+ x ) and then subtracting by 180.

Thank you Sir but i still need to know what if they've already given the degree inside the triange, that x there, and the Hyp was given too, which one do we use out of SOH or CAH or TOA? And how do you know if its that one? That is the one I'm struggling about in class. Hope you understand.

+Grace 지민 - Hi - I think the best way is always to label first ... and then to always label in the same order: OPP - opposite the angle you've been given HYP - the longest side ADJ - the one that's left From there you can decide whether to use Soh, Cah or Toa depending upon the information you've got. You'll have 2 out of the three pieces of information, the third piece will answer the question. Hope this helps and all best S :-)
