Question

score:7/10 current time:117.3
find: tan a
the figure is not drawn to scale
answer
\frac{40}{30} \frac{30}{50} \frac{40}{50} \frac{30}{40}

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the tangent formula

In a right - triangle, $\tan\theta=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}$. For angle $A$, the opposite side is $40$ and the adjacent side is $30$.

Step2: Calculate $\tan A$

Using the formula $\tan A=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}$, we substitute the values. So, $\tan A = \frac{40}{30}$.

Answer:

$\frac{40}{30}$
