Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the tangent of angle F in right triangle FGH with sides FG=24, GH=10, and FH=26.
<h3>Tangent</h3>
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the relations between trig functions and the sides of a right triangle. The TOA part of this tells you ...
Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent
<h3>Application</h3>
The side opposite angle F is GH = 10.
The side adjacent to angle F is FG = 24.
Then the tangent is ...
tan(F) = GH/FG = 10/24
tan(F) = 5/12 . . . . . reduced to lowest terms
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the gradient is given by:
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1), where two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are given.
Thus if we have a gradient of 2.5 and two points (3, 8) and (x, 13), we can substitute this into the above formula for the gradient to get:
2.5 = (13 - 8)/(x - 3)
2.5(x - 3) = 5 (Multiply both sides by (x - 3))
x - 3 = 2 (Divide both sides by 2.5)
x = 5 (Add 3 to both sides)
Thus, the value of x is 5.
