Question

I need help finding the measure of angle are you to the nearest hundred

Answer 1

Given data:

The first side given is a =100 ft.

The second side is b=249 ft.

The expression for tan(A) is,

`\begin{gathered} \tan (A)=(a)/(b) \\ \tan (A)=\frac{100\text{ ft}}{249\text{ ft}} \\ A=\tan ^(-1)((100)/(249)) \\ =21.88^(\circ) \\ \approx22^(\circ) \end{gathered}`

Thus, the angle A is 22 degrees, so second option is correct.
