For the given triangle, the tan of angle A equals
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
In the given triangle for angle A, the opposite side has a length of 6 cm, the adjacent side has a length of 8 cm while the hypotenuse of the triangle measures 10 cm. To calculate the tan of angle A we divide the opposite side's length by the adjacent side's length.
Step 2:
The opposite side's length = 6 cm.
The adjacent side's length = 8 cm.
Given
To find a solution for the linear equation, the first step is to write the equation in slope-intercept form:
-Pass the x-term to the right side of the equation by applying the opposite operation to both sides of the equal sign:
-Divide both sides by -2:
Once you have expressed the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, replace it with any value for x and calculate the corresponding value of y, for example, x=2
One solution for the linear equation is x=2 and y=-6, you can check the solution by replacing the values on the original equation, with both values the result should be 8:
As you can see the values are a valid solution for the linear equation.
So the solution is:
