The picture below shows a right-triangle-shaped charging stand for a gaming system:

Answer 1

This question is incomplete because it lacks the diagram of the right angles shaped charging stand.

Find attached to this answer, the appropriate diagram.

Answer:

3(tan 50°)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we would be using the Trigonometric function called Tangent.

tan θ = opposite side/ adjacent side

θ = 50°

Opposite side (Height)= Side AC = Unknown

Adjacent side = Side BC = 3 inches

Hence,

tan 50° = Side AC/ Side BC

tan 50° = Side AC / 3

Cross multiply

tan 50° × 3 = Side AC

3(tan 50°) = Side AC

Therefore, the expression shows the height, AC, of the charging stand is

3(tan 50°).
