Question

Round your answer to the nearest hundredth LA

Answer 1

Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we will use a right triangle trig identity to solve our problem. The side opposite the reference angle A is given as 5, and the side adjacent to the reference angle is given as 7. The trig ratio that uses the sides opposite and adjacent is the tangent ratio:

`tanA=(5)/(7)`

Hit the 2nd button on your calculator then the tan button which displays:

`tan^(-1)(`

Enter 5/7 after that open parenthesis and hit = to get that

A = 35.54°
