Answer: a = 23 ft.

Reasoning:

The question asks for the value of the leg a, given the tangent of the opposite angle and the length of the adjacent-leg, b.

The ratio that relates the three parameters is:

tan(A) = opposite-leg / adjacent-leg = a / b = a / 23 ft

Solve for a, wich is the unknown:

a = 23ft * tan(A) = 23ft * 1.0 = 23 ft

Answer: 23 ft.

Virty [35]

Using SohCahToa, we can find the height of the tree. Let the tree height be h. 8m is adjacent to the 30° angle.
$\tan(30) = \frac{h}{8} \\ h = 8 \tan(30) \\ h = 4.62$
The answer is A) 4.6 m

15+0= 15

Ksju [112]

First of all, let's take a look on the question.

$\large{15 + 0 = 15}$

Here, 0 is added to 15 and the resultant is 15 only. So, we can say that 0 when added with any number gives the same number as the resultant.

So, the property is known as Identity property because 0 is added to get the identity of the same number.

The Correct Option:

$\large{ \boxed{ \red{ \bf{Option \: C}}}}$

So, let's know more...

Commutative property ➝ a + b = b + a
Associative property ➝ a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c
Distributive property ➝ a(b + c) = ab + ac

So this is the general form of these properties which is general observed in the rational numbers.
