Question

Please help me with this question!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

tan (40°) = $\frac{x}{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

tan $\theta$ = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

The opposite side to angle B is x. The adjacent side to angle B is 100 ft.

tan (40°) = $\frac{x}{100}$

Answer 2

Answer:

tan 40° = x/100

Step-by-step explanation:

As, AC is perpendicular and BC is the with respect to angle ABC. So, tan 40° will be use to determine the distance in feet from point C to point A.

tan ABC = perpendicular/base

tan 40° = AC/BC

tan 40° = x/100 feet
