The wording of this problem indicates that there was an illustration. Could you possibly share that illustration?
Working without an illustration:
If tan theta = 3, then tan theta = opp/adj = 3/1. This tells us that the opp side is 3 times as long as is the adj. side. Let x be the shorter side, i. e., let x represent the adjacent side; then y is the longer side and represents the opposite side.
Then y = 3x (the opp side is 3x the adj side in length).
Applying the Pyth. Thm. a^2 + b^2 = c^2,
x^2 + (3x)^2 = hyp^2 = (25 cm.)^2
So x^2 + 9x^2 = (625 cm^2)
10x^2 = 625 cm^2, or x^2 = (625 cm^2) / 10 = 62.5 cm^2
x = 7.91 cm. Therefore, y = 3(7.91) = 23.72 cm.
We were supposed to round off these answers to the nearest 10th cm.
Therefore, x = 7.9 cm and y = 23.7 cm
Would that be A, B, C or D?

Answer:
704 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
