Question

In the diagram below, tan theta = sqrt3. What is the value of m?

Answer 1

`m=(√(3))/(2)`

Explanation:

we know that

The tangent of angle theta is equal to divide the opposite side angle theta by the adjacent side angle theta

`tan(\theta)=(m)/((1/2))=2m`

`tan(\theta)=√(3)`

so

`2m=√(3)`

`m=(√(3))/(2)`
