Find the tangents of the acute angles in the right triangle. Write each answer as a fraction 61,11,60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangle

Solving (a): The tangent of S

Using tan formula:

So:

Solving (b): The tangent of R

Using tan formula:

So:

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,
