Question

The diagram shows a right angled triangle 15cm 37 degrees

Answer 1

h = 11.3 cm

use tane rule:

`\sf tan(x)= (opposite)/(adjacent)`

Here:

• x = 37°

• opposite = h

• adjacent = 15 cm

=========

`\hookrightarrow \sf tan(37)= (h)/(15)`

`\hookrightarrow \sf h = tan(37) * 15`

`\hookrightarrow \sf h = 11.3 \ cm`
