Trigonometry
- [Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA
- [Right Triangles Only] tanθ = opposite over adjacent
Explanation:
Step 1: Identify
Angle θ = 27°
Opposite Leg = x
Adjacent Leg = 13
Step 2: Solve for x
- Substitute [tangent]: tan27° = x/13
- Isolate x term: 13tan27° = x
- Rearrange: x = 13tan27°
- Evaluate: x = 6.62383
- Round: x ≈ 6.6
