Answer:
- tan(68°) = 10/x
- x ≈ 4.0 ft
Explanation:
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relation between triangle sides and angles. Here, we're given sides adjacent and opposite the marked angle, so the relation of interest is ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(68°) = 10/x
x = 10/tan(68°)
x ≈ 4.0 . . . feet
