Answer:

1

Explanation:

tangent of a 45 degree angle is 1

to find tangent, it is the length of the side opposite to an angle divided by the adjacent side

so the tangent of the top angle (which measures 45 degrees) is 1/1 since the adjacent and opposite sides both measure 1, therefore the tangent is 1 bc 1/1=1.

this proves that the tangent of a 45 degree angle is 1
