Question

type the correct answer in the box.
what trigonometric expression can be used to find the value of x? replace a and b with the correct values.
\frac{a}{\tan(b)}

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the tangent function definition

In a right - triangle, \(\tan\theta=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\).

Step2: Identify the sides for the given angle

For the angle of \(25^{\circ}\), the opposite side \(a = 12\) and the adjacent side \(b=x\).

Answer:

\(\frac{12}{x}\)
