Question

In PQR, the measure of

Answer 1

17.9 degrees

Explanation:

Relative to the unknown angle, angle P, we have 3.2 is the opposite side and 9.9 is the adjacent side.

We have o for opposite and a for adjacent.

Thus we should use TOA, as the o and the a can both be found in TOA.

TOA tells us to use tangent (T for tangent)

So we have tangent x= opposite/adjacent

So we have tangent x= 3.2/9.9

tangent^-1 (3.2/9.9)=x

x=17.9 degrees
