Diagram NOT accurately drawn
Triangle \(PQR\) is right-angled at \(R\).
\(PR = 4.7\) cm and \(PQ = 7.6\) cm.
(a) Calculate the size of angle \(PQR\).
Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place. (3)
Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place. (3)
The length, 7.6 cm, of \(PQ\) is correct to 2 significant figures.
(b)
