Question

What is the decimal value of tan Z?

Answer 1

For angle Z, 24 is the opposite leg, and 32 is the adjacent leg.

tan Z = opp/adj

tan Z = 24/32

Answer: tan Z = 0.75

Answer 2

we are given

opposite =24

adjacent =32

we can use formula

$tan(Z)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

now, we can plug values

and we get

$tan(Z)=\frac{24}{32}$

now, we can divide it

and we get

$tan(Z)=0.75$............Answer
