Question

#Write a function called solve_right_triangle. The function
#solve_right_triangle should have three parameters: opposite,
#adjacent, and use_degrees. opposite and adjacent will be
#floats, and use_degrees will be a boolean. use_degrees
#should be a keyword parameter, and it should have a
#default value of False.
#
#The function should return a tuple containing the
#hypotenuse and angle of the right triangle (in that order).
#If use_degrees is False, the angle should be in radians.
#If use_degrees is True, the angle should be in degrees.
#
#Remember, the formula for the hypotenuse of a right
#triangle is the square root of the sum of the squared side
#lengths. You can find arctan using math.atan(), passing in
#the quotient of the opposite and adjacent as the argument.
#By default, math.atan() returns the angle in radians; you
#can pass that angle as an argument into the math.degrees()
#method to convert it to degrees; for example:
#
# angle_in_degrees = math.degrees(angle_in_radians)
