a triangle has sides 8cm and 5cm and an angle of 90 degree between them. calculate the smallest angle of the triangle

The smallest angle is 32 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters show that the triangle is a right angled triangle;

Let the two other angles be represented by x and y;

Since the angle between side 5 cm and side 8 cm is 90, we can represent any of this sides as the opposite and as the adjacent;

Scenario 1 (Calculating x)

Let opposite = 5 cm

Let adjacent = 8 cm

In trigonometry, The relationship between opposite and adjacent is Tangent;

Take arctan of both sides

(Approximated)

Scenario 2 (Calculating y)

Let opposite = 8 cm

Let adjacent = 5 cm

In trigonometry, The relationship between opposite and adjacent is Tangent;

Take arctan of both sides

(Approximated)

By comparing the angles, the smallest angle is 32 degrees
