In the diagram TX is perpendicular to UW UX 1cm... - WAEC Mathematics 2016 Question
In the diagram, TX is perpendicular to UW, |UX| = 1cm and |TX| = |WX| = cm. Find UTW
A
135o
B
105o
C
75o
D
60o
correct option: c
In (\Delta) UXT, tan(\alpha) = (\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})
(\alpha) = tan-1((\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}))
= 30o
In (\Delta)WXT, tan(\beta) (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}) = 1
(\beta) = tan-1(1) = 45o
Hence, < UTW = (\alpha) + (\beta)
= 30o + 45o = 75o
