you have the adjacent side and the opposite side from the reference angle \[\sin(\theta) = \frac{ opposite }{ hypotenuse }\] \[\cos(\theta) = \frac{ adjacent }{ hypotenuse }\] \[\tan(\theta) = \frac{ opposite }{ adjacent }\] which trig ratio do you use

cos

snowflake0531:

uhhh are you sure? you have opposite and adjacent

kekeman:

Oh so we use tan

snowflake0531:

Yes so how would you set the equation up using tan |dw:1620839068923:dw|

10 divided by tan 50 degrees

snowflake0531:

tan(50) = x/10 try again

kekeman:

Dang it i knew it was 10 tan 50°

snowflake0531:

lol

kekeman:

So it is 10 tan 50°

snowflake0531:

positive
