Question

Find the exact value of tan (m). a. 0.0073 b. 5/13 c. 5/12 d. 0.443

Answer 1

The correct answer is option c. 5/12

From Pythagorean triplet,
`5^(2) + 12^(2) = 13^(2)`,
we get to assume the right triangle as, base = 12 , perpendicular = 5 and hypotenuse = 13,

then, tanФ = perpendicular/base
= 5/12
thus, The exact value of tan (m) = 5/12
