Question

Use a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle to find the tangent of 60 Degrees

Answer 1

Let's put more details in the given figure to better understand the solution:

Let's now determine the Tangent of 60 degrees:

`\text{ Tangent (60}^(\circ))\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Opposite}}{\text{ Adjacent}}`
`\text{ = }\frac{\text{ }\sqrt[]{3}}{1}`
`\text{ Tangent (60}^(\circ))\text{ = }\sqrt[]{3}`

Therefore, the tangent of 60 degrees is √3.

The answer is Option 1 : √3
