Answer 1

Answer:

$tan(a)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, the side adjacent angle a is 12, the

hypotenuse is 24.

Angle 'a' is 12

hypotenuse is 24

$sin(a)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

$sin(12)=\frac{opposite}{24}$

opposite side = 24 times sin(12)=5

$cos(a)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

$cos(12)=\frac{adjacent}{24}$

adjacent side = 24 times cos(12)=23.5

$tan(a)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

$tan(a)=\frac{5}{23.5}$
