Question

Help me solve this with the steps please :/

Answer 1

Option (2)

Explanation:

By applying tangent rule in the given right triangle,

tan(42°) =
`\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}`

tan(42°) =
`\frac{6}{\text{Width}}`

Width =
`\frac{6}{\text{tan}(42)}`

Width = 6.67

Therefore, width of the given triangle is 6.67 units.

Option (2) is the correct option.
