In the triangle, the angle is 40°, the opposite side has a length of 26 units, the adjacent side has a length of x units while the hypotenuse is not given.

To determine the value of x, we determine the value of the tan of the given triangle.

To calculate the tan of angle A we divide the opposite side's length by the the adjacent side's length.

$tan A = \frac{oppositeside}{adjacent side}.$

Step 2:

The length of the opposite side = 26 units.

The length of the adjacent side = x units.

$tan A = \frac{oppositeside}{adjacent side}, tan 40 = 0.8390, tan A = \frac{26}{x} .$

$0.8390 = \frac{26}{x} , x = \frac{26}{0.8390} = 30.9892.$

So x measures 30.9892 units.

Eric is doing a class project for his television broadcasting class in college during 35 minutes of television on one of the maj

Bingel [31]

Ration of minutes of television to commercial is 35:7.8
3 hours and 50 minutes is 230 minutes
230:X
35:7.8
Multiply both sides by 6.6
X=51.5 minutes
There is about 51.5 minutes of commercials
