Mia is able to find the height of the students so accurately using the tangent property of trigonometry.
The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. it is given as,
[tex]\rm Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]
where,
θ is the angle,
Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,
The base is the adjacent smaller side of the angle θ.
As it can be seen that there are two right triangles, therefore, using the tangent property of the trigonometry, Mia is able to find the height of the students so accurately.
