Question

In ΔEFG, the measure of ∠G=90°, the measure of ∠E=19°, and FG = 62 feet. Find the length of GE to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answer 1

Answer:180.1 feet

Explanation:

Using tan to find the answer; Opposite/Adjacent = 62/x

tan19=62/x

xtan19=62 (cross multiply)

xtan19/tan19=62/tan19 (Divide each side by tan19)

x=62/tan19=180.0611=180.1 feet
