The answer is 73.7 Its D

Deandre Young · Answer 2

To get the value of angle b given that the right triangle has hypotenuse, BC=25, and base, AC=24

therefore the value of angle be will be found using the formula:

cos θ = adj/hyp

hypotenuse=25

adjacent = 24

therefore:

cos θ=24/25

θ=arccos 24/25=16.26°~16.3°

The answer is A. 16.3°
