Find the missing side. Round to the nearest tenth.

[tex] \boxed {\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}} [/tex]
[tex] \tan(67 \textdegree) = \dfrac{x}{16} [/tex]
Cross Multiply:
[tex] x = 16\tan(67 \textdegree) [/tex]
[tex] x = 37.7 \text{ units (nearest tenth)} [/tex]

Answer: 37.7 units
Given:
m<67
Adjacent side = 16
Step One
Set up the proper trig function.
Tan(67) = opposite / adjacent
Substitute and solve
Tan(67) = 2.356
adjacent = 16
2.356 = x / 16 Multiply both sides by 16
2.356 * 16 = x
x = 37.694 <<<<< Answer
