Answer 1

Answer: E

Explanation:

Answer 2

Then tan(x) = 4/3

Explanation:

Given that we have a rectangle ABCD, we can affirm the following:

AD = BC = 4

AB = DC = 3

Now, we now that tan = Opposite Side / Adjacent Side

Then the opposite side to the angle x is AB = 4, and the adjacent side to angle x is DC = 3.

Then tan(x) = Opposite Side / Adjacent Side = 4/3 = 1,3333.
