We will use tangent here as we are finding the opposite with the adjacent given.

So we can simply just put this into a calculator:

tan(68°) × 7 cm = AC

tan(68°) × 7 cm = 17.3 cm

Answer:

AC ≈ 17.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan68° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AC}{AB}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AC}{7}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 7 )

7 × tan68° = AC , then

AC ≈ 17.3 cm ( to 1 dec. place )
