Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.

Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 5.4, Problem 10E , additional homework tip 1

Calculation:

  ∠A=37∘,b=6 find a

Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 5.4, Problem 10E , additional homework tip 2

From angle A we are dealing with b and a which are the adjacent and opposite sides respectively.

So this is a tangent problem.

  tan37∘=a66tan37∘=aa=6×0.7536a=4.5
