Answer:

Hey! The answer would be D) 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan C= Opp/Adj so 24/32

then you would do 24/8 and 32/8

which is 3/4

It would be greatly appreciated if you gave me brainlest

Step-by-step explanation:

the other answer is correct and simple (based on simply applying definitions and formulas).

to help you with understanding the background there are actually 2 direct ways to solve this.

trigonometry is always about angles in a circle. even if and when we are taking about angles in other shapes like triangles. we simply need to imagine a circle around the shape in question going through the important points.

so the first way is to imagine a circle with the center in point C and going through point A.

the radius of that circle is 40 (AC).

so, sin(C) × 40 = 24

cos(C) × 40 = 32

tan(C) = sin(C)/cos(C) = (sin(C)×40)/(cos(C)×40) = 24/32

= 3/4

fit the second way imagine a circle with the center again in point C and going through point B.

the radius of that circle is 32 (BC).

here now tan(C) × 32 = 24 (AB).

yes, AB would in that scenario be directly tan(C), but it is multiplied by the radius.

so, to get the "pure" tan(C), we need to divide this length by the radius.

=> 24 / 32 = 3/4
