The value is 12/5

this is because tan= opposite/adjacent

tan(A)= 24/10 24 is opposite to point A and 10 is adjacent to point A.

this simplifies to 2.4

12/5= 2.4

12/5 is the final answer.

I believe this is correct.

The measure of the Tan(∠A) is [tex]\dfrac{12}{5}[/tex]°.

What is Tangent (Tanθ)?

The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. it is given as,

[tex]\rm{Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]

where,

θ is the angle,

Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,

the base is the adjacent smaller side of the angle θ.

Given to us

  • AB = 26
  • BC = 24
  • AC = 10

We know that tangent is the ratio of perpendicular to the base. therefore,

In ΔABC,

[tex]Tan(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]

[tex]Tan(\angle A) = \dfrac{BC}{AC}\\\\Tan(\angle A) = \dfrac{24}{10}\\\\Tan(\angle A) = \dfrac{12}{5}[/tex]

Hence, the measure of the Tan(∠A) is [tex]\dfrac{12}{5}[/tex]°.
