Ms. Ziolkowski asks her class to write the correct trigonometric function for the triangle shown below. Two students get into an argument about the correct answer.
Rhianna states that the correct trig function is tan A = 3/4. Christopher insists that the correct trig function is tan C = 4/3. Who is correct? In writing your response, be sure to include the terms opposite side, adjacent side, tangent ratio, and reference angle. Be sure to restate the question and explain your position with at least four sentences.

first, you divide the triangle in two, tô form a retangle triangle. after, using pythagoream theorem:

18^2 = 14^2 + (x/2)^2

(x^2/4) + 196 = 324

x^2/4 = 324 - 196

x^2/4 = 128

x^2 = 512

x = √512

x = √2^9

x = 16√2 cm

i hope i you.

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
