Given the measure of an acute angle in a right triangle, we can tell the ratios of the lengths of the triangle's sides relative to that acute angle. Here are the approximate ratios for angle measures 55\degree55°55, degree, 65\degree65°65, degree, and 75\degree75°75, degree.
Angle 55\degree55°55, degree 65\degree65°65, degree 75\degree75°75, degree
\dfrac{\text{adjacent leg length}}{\text{hypotenuse length}}
hypotenuse length
