tan(C)=

Answer 1

2.05

Explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationship between sides of a right triangle and trig functions. Since you want the tangent, you are interested in ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

The side opposite angle C is ED=80. The side adjacent to angle C is CD=39. Then the tangent is ...

tan(C) = ED/CD = 80/39

tan(C) ≈ 2.05
