Question

AC = Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. B 6 70degrees A ? с

Answer 1

Answer:

AC ≈ 2.18 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan70° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{BC}{AC}$ = $\frac{6}{AC}$ ( multiply both sides by AC )

AC × tan70° = 6 ( divide both sides by tan70° )

AC = $\frac{6}{tan70}$ ≈ 2.18 ( to the nearest hundredth )
