<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Jaime is playing disc golf
He is standing across a creek from the basket at a 60° angle
Let "r" be the distance between him and the basket
The figure is attached below
From figure, it is a right angled triangle
By definition of tan,
From figure,
opposite = r
adjacent = 5 m
Thus the equation used to find the distance, r, between him and the basket is found
