The hypotenuse and one of the legs of a right triangle form an angle that has a sine of 4 9 . What is the tangent of the angle? A) 4 65 65 B) 9 65 65 C) 65 4 Eliminate D) 65 9

OpenStudy (freckles):

|dw:1418768903687:dw| sin(u) is given as 4/9 if I read what you have correctly

OpenStudy (freckles):

so sin(u)=opp/hyp

OpenStudy (freckles):

so I recommend giving the opp side measurement 4 and the hyp 9

OpenStudy (freckles):

then you can find the remaining side measurement by Pythagorean theorem

OpenStudy (freckles):

then you will be able to find tan(u)

OpenStudy (freckles):

|dw:1418769018660:dw| so that remaining side is the adjacent side to u
