Use the inverse of tangent to find the approximate measure of angle A , rounded to the nearest whole degree. A 23° B 21° C. 43° D. 67°

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan A = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BC}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{5}[/tex] , then
∠ A = [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex] ( [tex]\frac{12}{5}[/tex] ) ≈ 67° ( to the nearest whole degree )
