Answer:
Explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem (
a
2
+
b
2
=
c
2
)
Lets label the right triangle such that:
a
=
12
b
=
16
c
=
x
Thus,
12
2
+
16
2
=
x
2
144
+
256
=
x
2
400
=
x
2
√
400
=
x
20
=
x
So our missing side,
c
is
20
We can now say that the sides of our triangle are
12
,
16
,
20
I've included a link that lists a couple of Pythagorean triples (a couple because they are infinitely many).

Answer:
AC = 3.72 units
Angles:
A = 132.6°
C = 27.4°
Step-by-step explanation:
AC² = 5² + 8² - 2(5)(8)cos(20)
AC² = 13.82459034
AC = 3.718143399
3.718143399/sin20 = 8/sinA
sinA = 0.7358944647
A = 180 - 47.38285134
A = 132.6171487
3.718143399/sin20 = 5/sinC
sinC = 0.4599340405
C = 27.38285134
Its because 20 is doubling its self. Its using 100% of its number, While 40 is decreasing by 50%. Half of forty is 20. Half equals 50%.
