Question

Iven right triangle XYZ, what is the value of tan(60°)?

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of  $\tan (60^{\circ})$ is $\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of $\tan (60^{\circ})$

It can be calculated by the triangle XYZ as shown in figure-1

Since, the tangent is ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent.

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

In the triangle XYZ

$\tan(60^{\circ}) = \frac{XZ}{ZY}$

$\tan(60^{\circ}) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{1}$

$\tan(60^{\circ}) = \sqrt{3}$

Therefore, the value of  $\tan (60^{\circ})$ is $\sqrt{3}$
