Question

Find the missing side. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

`\boxed {\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}}`

`\tan(67 \textdegree) = (x)/(16)`

Cross Multiply:

`x = 16\tan(67 \textdegree)`

`x = 37.7 \text{ units (nearest tenth)}`

-

Answer: 37.7 units

Answer 2

Given:

m<67

Adjacent side = 16

Step One

Set up the proper trig function.

Tan(67) = opposite / adjacent

Substitute and solve

Tan(67) = 2.356

adjacent = 16

2.356 = x / 16 Multiply both sides by 16

2.356 * 16 = x

x = 37.694 <<<<< Answer
