Answer:
The answer to your question is b = 148.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, use trigonometric functions
tan Ф = [tex]\frac{opposite side}{adjacent side}[/tex]
opposite side = b
adjacent side = 60
tan Ф = tan 68° = 2.48
Opposite side = adjacent side x tan Ф
Opposite side = 60 x 2.48
Opposite side = b = 148.5
Answer: 24.24 (24 to the nearest whole number)
Step-by-step explanation:
Following trigonometric rule,
Tan tita = opposite side/ adjacent side
Tan 68° = 60 / b
2.475 = 60 / b
By cross multiplication,
2.475b = 60
Divide both sides by 2.475
2.475b/2.475 =60/2.475
b = 24.24
Hence, adjacent side = 24.24 (24 to the nearest whole number since opposite side is in whole number).
