The value of tanA can be expressed as
(3)/(4)

How can the tanA be calculated?

Trigonometry is the area of mathematics that deals with particular angle functions and how to use them in computations. In trigonometry, an angle can have six common functions. The terms sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), secant (sec), and cosecant (csc) are their names and abbreviations.

Given that;

The opposite side's length = 6 cm.

The adjacent side's length = 8 cm.


Tan A= (opposite)/(adjacent)


Tan A=(6)/(8)

=
(3)/(4)
