Geometry

[Chuck]

I'm trying to write a formula for a Right Angle Triangle
that returns the Angle in degrees of "A" knowing the
Hypotenuse "c" and Height "a".
I tried =DEGREES(a/c) but it comes up with a value smaller
then it should be. Thanks

DEGREES just converts radians into degrees. You first need to find
the angle in radians.

Take a look at ASIN() in XL Help.
