In triangle ABC, angle C is straight, BC = 9, tg A = 0.75. Find an AC?

1) BC = 9;

tg a = 0.75;

2) Tangent of an acute angle – the ratio of the opposite leg to the hypotenuse.

tg a = BC / AC;

Let us express AC.

tg a * AC = BC;

AC = BC / tg a;

3) Find the AC.

AC = 9 / 0.75 = 9 / (75/100) = 9 / (3/4) = 9/1 * 4/3 = 9/3 * 4 = 3 * 4 = 12;

Answer: AC = 12.
