Question

What is the tangent ratio of angle x?

tan x= 20/21
tan x= 21/29
tan x= 20/29
tan x= 21/20

Answer 1

`\tan x=21/20`

Explanation:

In any right triangle, the tangent of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by its adjacent side. (o/a)

For angle
`x`, its opposite side is 21 feet and its adjacent side is 20 feet. Therefore, we have:

`\boxed{\tan x=21/20}`
