Answer:
The answer is option B
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the figure above is a right angled triangle we can use trigonometric ratios to find y
To find y we use tan
tan∅ = opposite/ adjacent
From the question
[tex] \frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2} [/tex] is the adjacent
The opposite is y
So we have
[tex] \tan(45) = \frac{y}{ \frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2} } [/tex]
But
[tex] \tan(45) = 1[/tex]
That's
[tex]1 = \frac{y}{ \frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2} } [/tex]
Cross multiply
We have the final answer as
[tex]y = \frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2} [/tex]
Hope this helps you
