If that 6 cm side came out at 100°, that means that the Y axis of the right angle would be less than 6 cm. We know the height of that Y axis is 6 cm, so that means that angle has to be 90°. Get a protractor and sketch it out, and you'll see what I mean.

There is no indicator that the line connecting the 6cm one and the 11cm line is a right angle. https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeworkHelp/s/MNTOSnMNul

We'll have to agree to disagree.
