00:01 In the cution given right triangle is as i'm drawing right triangle given in the cution so this is a right angle whose points are this is a point a this is point b and this is point c where c has a 90 degree angle and this is angle a and this is angle b given sides are this is a this is b and this is c and given data are this is a this is a there are two sides value given that is first is side a is equal to two and side b is equal to 8 and what we have to find out is we are we have to find missing side that is c and angle a and angle b these three variables we have to find out so first we see in the right triangle and use the pythagorean theorem according to pythagorean theorem we can find the value of c easily so value of c is a square root of a square plus b square c means hypotenous so put the value of a and b is 2 so 2 square is equal to 4 plus b is equal to 8 so 8 8 is equal to 64 so what we get after taking after adding and taking square root is square root of 68 so this is the value of c and next step is i'm trying to find the value of angle a and angle b so again look…
