Assume triangle QSR is right with right angle at S. Given QS = 16 and QR = 34 (hypotenuse), compute the other leg:
SR = sqrt(34^2 − 16^2) = sqrt(1156 − 256) = sqrt(900) = 30.
tan(Q) = (opposite to Q)/(adjacent to Q) = SR/QS = 30/16 = 15/8.
SR = sqrt(34^2 − 16^2) = sqrt(1156 − 256) = sqrt(900) = 30.
tan(Q) = (opposite to Q)/(adjacent to Q) = SR/QS = 30/16 = 15/8.
