Proof: Tangent 2
Let's prove the following theorem:
if ∠ABC is a right angle, then tangent of (m∠BAC) = (distance CB) / (distance BA)
Proof:
Given
1 | ∠ABC is a right angle |
---|
# | Claim | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | ∠CBA is a right angle | if ∠ABC is a right angle, then ∠CBA is a right angle |
2 | tangent of (m∠BAC) = (distance CB) / (distance BA) | if ∠CBA is a right angle, then tangent of (m∠BAC) = (distance CB) / (distance BA) |
