Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

cos A = adjacent / hypotenuse

sin A = opposite / hypotenuse

Therefore, sin A / cos A =

(opposite / hypotenuse)  / (adjacent / hypotenuse)

= (opposite/hypotenuse) * (hypotenuse / adjacent)

= opposite / adjacent

= tan A

Therefore, tan A = sin A / cos A = y/x

Please help me solve this (ASAP)

Since complementary angles add to 90°, (4x - 1) and (5x + 19), also add to 90°.

Thus, lets form an equation:

90 = 5x + 19 + 4x - 1
72 = 9x
x = 9

Thus, the measure of angle B is 64°.
