Question

Use triangle ABC to find the value of tan A

Answer 1

Tan x = 7/24
Tan-1 (7/24
0.2916x/1 =7/24
*cross multiply *
6.998x = 7
*divide
x= .997

Answer 2

We know that Tan theta = perpendicular / base

Given triangle ABC is right angled at C

here corresponding to angle A the base is AC= 24

The per perpendicular is BC= 7

So Tan A= Perpendicular/ base = BC/ AC = 7 /24

Answer : 7/24
