B30

Steps

Step 1 :Given a right triangle ABC with C=90, a=21.4 cm, and c=42.8 cm.

Step 2 :Since it's a right triangle, we can use the sine function to find B. The sine function is defined as sin(angle)=opposite sidehypotenuse. In this case, sin(B)=ac.

Step 3 :Calculate the value of sin(B): sin(B)=21.442.8=0.5.

Step 4 :Use the inverse sine function (arcsin) to find B: B=arcsin(0.5)30.

Step 5 :B30
