Mars is 57 million miles away. presently, spaceships go about 16,000 miles per hour. how long would it take a spaceship to get to mars? (round your answer to the nearest day.)

Question:

In triangle TUV, the measure of angle V = 90°, TV = 56, UT = 65, and VU = 33. What is the value of the tangent of angle U to the nearest hundredth?

_________________________________________________

Solution:

The triangle should look like that in the attachment.

Tangent of U = opposite side/adjacent side.

= 56/33

= 1.69696969.....

Rounding off to nearest hundredth,

= 1.697
