Question

In the triangle below y=? Round to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 51.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find y we use tan

tan∅ = opposite/ adjacent

From the question

8 is the adjacent

10 is the opposite

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

$\tan(y) = \frac{10}{8}$

$y = \tan^{ - 1} ( \frac{10}{8} )$

y = 51.34019

We have the final answer as

y = 51.3 to the nearest tenth
