The
best approximation for the distance is 3.) 4 meters. Since the resulting figure
forms a right triangle, you can use the mnemonic SOHCAHTOA. Since the angle has
an opposite given distance while the value to be solved is adjacent to the
angle, use TOA or Tangentθ = Opposite Side/Adjacent side. Wherein <span>θ represents the angle.
</span><span>So the equation looks
like this: </span> <span>Tangent (63) =
8m / x </span><span>1.96 = 8m/x </span><span>0.245 = 1/x </span><span>1 / 0.245 = x </span><span>X = 4.08m</span>
