Question

What is the tangent ratio for ∠A?

Answer 1

Tan <A = 1/2

Explanation:

SOH CAH TOA

TOA (opposite/adjacent)

So, the answer is 1/2

because the opposite of <A is 1 and the adjacent is 2.

Answer 2

For this case we have to define trigonometric relations of rectangular triangles, that the tangent of an angle is given by the leg opposite the angle on the leg adjacent to the angle. Then, according to the figure we have:

`tg (A) = \frac {1} {2}`

Answer:

`tg (A) = \frac {1} {2}`
