QuestionUsing a ruler and a pair of compabses, construct a right-angled triangle with a base of 6 cm and a hypotenuse of 11 cm . You must show all of your construction lines.
Measure the angle opposite the base to the nearest degree.

Studdy Solution
To measure the angle opposite the base $AB$, use a protractor. Place the protractor's center at point $B$ and align the base line of the protractor with line $AB$. Measure the angle $\angle ACB$ to the nearest degree.
The angle opposite the base is measured to be approximately $\boxed{33^\circ}$.
