Answer

measure of angle A: 28 degrees

BC ≈ 13.3

BA = 28.3

hope this helps

Explanation:

angle A

90- 62 = 28

angle A = 28

BC

tan (A) = BC / 25

(25) tan 28 = BC / 25 (25) multiply 25 on both sides to cancel it out from BC

13.292735 = BC

BC ≈ 13.3

BA

BA^2 = 13.3^2 + 25^2 Pythagorean theorem

BA ≈ 28.3

If any of these are wrong, just follow the steps and make sure to use Ans in the calculator instead of rounding your numbers! Good luck :)
