Your friend is working on building a computer. They know that you are good with math, so they come to you asking "I know that the base of my computer monitor will be 24 inches long, and I have heard that having an angle of 28 degrees between the base and the top corner makes for a comfortable screen size. I think that the height of the screen should be 16 inches tall. Is that right?"

Answer :

h = unknown height

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(28) = h/24

h = 24*tan(28)

h = 12.76102635988 approximately

It's not clear how she or he got "16 inches tall" but unfortunately it's incorrect. The height would be 13 inches if rounding to the nearest whole number.
