Answer:

large triangle:

base = 6.64 cm

hypotenuse = 8.31 cm

small triangle:

base = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

large triangle:

tan 37 = 5/base

0.7536 = 5/base

base = 6.64 cm

using the Pythagorean theorem:

hypotenuse² = 5² + 6.64²

hypotenuse² = 25 = 44.02 = 69.02

hypotenuse = 8.31 cm

small triangle:

using the Pythagorean theorem:

base² = 5² - 3²

base² = 25 - 9 = 16

base = 4 cm
