Question

According to this diagram what is tan 67degrees?

Answer 1

The answer is 12/5 due to T = O/A.

Answer 2

12/5

Explanation:

We know that tanθ = opposite/adjacent. Opposite means the side that is opposed to θ. Adjacent is the side between the right angle and θ.

Therefore, tan67° means finding the ratio of the side that is opposed to 67° (which is 12) and the side that is between 90° and 67° (which is 5). Therefore,

`\displaystyle{\tan 67^(\circ) = (12)/(5)}`
