Question

Find the length of FT

Answer 1

A. 49.42

Explanation:

tan 43 = FT ÷ VT

0.932515086 = FT ÷ 53

49.42 = FT

Answer 2

Explanation:

Hey there!

From the given figure;

Angle FVT = 43°

VT = 53

Taking Angle FVT as reference angle we get;

Perpendicular (p) = FT = ?

Base (b) = VT = 53

Taking the of tan;

`\tan( \alpha ) = (p)/(b)`

Keep all values and simplify it;

`\tan(43) = (ft)/(53)`

0.932515*53 = FT

Therefore, FT= 49.423.

Hope it helps!
