Answer:

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For missing hypotenuse: $\sqrt({a^{2} + b^{2})$

Plug in the side lengths that are known to find the hypotenuse.

1. No, the angle is less than 18 degrees (closer to 15), so it is not safe

2. The length rounded to the nearest tenth is approximately 15.5 feet.
