Tan52° = x/29
The angle of elevation is 52°, so that must be inside the tan function.
Tan is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side. Jessica’s height is unknown, so we can call that x. The adjacent side of the triangle is the shadow, which is 29’m. Since tan is opposite over adjacent (remember SOH CAH TOA), the fraction must be x/29.
Answer:
a should be 45
b should be 90
c should also be 45
Step-by-step explanation:
I know this because 180-135=45 for a
since c is also 45, beside c should be 135.
which means those angles are congruent.
since a triangle equals 180 degrees all together 180-45-45=90
so b is 90
correct me if im wrong
Answer:
62°
Step-by-step explanation:
In an isosceles triangle, angle opposite to equal sides are equal.
So according to angle sum property :
x + x + 56 = 180
2x + 56 = 180
x = 180 - 56 /2
x = 62°
