Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

\tan A=0.5714

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A right angled triangle with given dimensions.

We have to find the value of  \tan A

Consider the given right angled triangle.

Using trigonometric ratio,

The tangent of angle is the ratio of perpendicular to the base.

Mathematically written as   \tan\theta=\frac{Perpendicular}{base}

For the given triangle

\theta=A , base = 21 and perpendicular = 12

Substitute, we have,

\tan A=\frac{12}{21}

Simplify, we have,

\tan A=0.5714

Option (d) is correct.

PLEASE HELP !!! The height of a rectangle is twice the width and the area is 32. Find the dimensions.
Helen [10]

Answer:

The rectangle has a width of 4 and a height of 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the rectangle be H and the width be W.

We know the height of the rectangle is twice the width, so:

H = 2W

The area of a rectangle, A, is given by A = W * H, so in this case:

32 = W * 2W

32 = 2W²

W² = 16

W = 4

Knowing that the width is 4, the height must be 8. This gives us an area of 32.
