Answer:

Tan J = 0.2917

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of tan J

Firstly, we need to understand that the numbers 24, 25 and 7 are a Pythagorean triple and as such the three measures represent the values of length of the sides of a right angled triangle

The tangent of an angle= measure of the opposite/measure of the adjacent

In the question, the opposite to point J measures 7 while the adjacent measures 24

So ;

tan J = 7/24

= 0.2917
