Question

Practice Triangle Ratios (Sides) Find the value of c. Round to the nearest tenth!

Answer 1

30.67

Explanation:

Given the following

Opposite side = x

Adjacent = 17

Angle = 61degrees

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

tan theta = opp/adj

tan 61 = x/17

x = 17tan61

x = 17(1.8040)

x = 30.67

Hence the value of x is 30.67
