Given:

  • Adjacent= 12 centimeters
  • Opposite side ( x )
  • Angle degrees= 22

To find:

The opposite side of the right angle triangle by using Tan.

Solution:


tan \: 22 = (x)/(12)


x = 12 * tan \: 22


x = 4.8 \: cm

Therefore, the opposite side of the right angle triangle is 4.8 centimeters
