Question

In the triangle below which of the following is equivalent to the tangent of 52 degrees?

Answer 1

24/7 is the tangent in the triangle of 62 degrees. the formula for tangent is opposite/ adjacent in case u want to use it for future reference

Answer 2

Option D.
`(24)/(7)`.

Explanation:

In any right angle triangle tangent of an angle is the ratio of opposite side and adjacent side.

tan x =
`\frac{\text{Opposite side (24)}}{\text{Adjacent side (7)}}`

=
`(24)/(7)`

therefore, Option D.
`(24)/(7)` is the answer.
