Question

Find the distance from A to C across the gorge illustrated in the figure

Answer 1

Applying the tangent ratio, the distance from A to C across the gorge, is:  60.6 ft.

What is Tangent Ratio?

The tangent ratio for solving a right triangle is given as, tan ∅ = opposite/adjacent.

Given the following:

• ∅ = 25°
• Adjacent length = 130 ft
• Opposite length = AC

Apply the tangent ratio:

tan 25 = AC/130

AC = (130)(tan 25)

AC = 60.6 ft
