Given:
Base length of triangle = 40 units
Height of triangle = 9 units
Length of hypotenuse of triangle = 41 units
To find:
Find the value of Tan A
Steps:
Tan of an angle is equal to the opposite length by adjacent length.
So,
Tan A =
![(opposite)/(adjacent)](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/raearlj50azs6xjmdx9c5r3fevkr47wlx3.png)
Tan A =
![(9)/(40)](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/fw3vv4ari7jwntxbq3dbe2phqbj9a8ouf8.png)
Tan A = 0.225
Therefore, the exact value of Tan A is 0.225.
