Answer:
[tex]m\angle D=29.05[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given an image of a right triangle and we are asked to find the measure of angle D.
We can see from our given triangle that the opposite side of angle D measures 25 ft and adjacent side of angle D is 45 ft.
Since we know that tangent represents the relation between the opposite and adjacent sides of a right triangle.
[tex]\text{tan}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}}[/tex]
Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,
[tex]\text{tan}\angle D=\frac{25}{45}[/tex]
[tex]\angle D=\text{tan}^{-1}(\frac{25}{45})[/tex]
[tex]\angle D=29.054604099077[/tex]
Upon rounding our answer to nearest hundredth we will get,
[tex]\angle D\approx 29.05[/tex]
Therefore,the measure of angle D is 29.05 degrees.
