Question

100 POINTS PLUS BRAINILY

Answer 1

Answer:

$\sf adjacent = 4.5 \ ft$

Explanation:

$\sf tan(x) = \dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}$

$\sf tan(71) = \dfrac{13}{adjacent}$

$\sf adjacent = \dfrac{13}{tan(71)}$

$\sf adjacent = 4.5 \ ft$

Answer 2

• Perpendicular=P=13
• Base=?

Let base be B

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow tan\theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow tan71=\dfrac{13}{B}$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow B=13/2.9$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow B=4.48ft$
