To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have that the ratio of the tangent function is:

 tan(angle)=opposite/adjacent

 2. Keeping this on mind, you have:

 tan(A)=12/5

 Therefore, the answer is: 

 tan(A)=12/5

Hello!

First you have to label the sides of the triangle

The hypotenuse is the longest side
The opposite side is the side opposite of the angle
The adjacent side is the third side

Find tangent you do opposite / adjacent

The opposite side is 12
The adjacent side is 5

Put in the numbers

The answer is D) 12/5

Hope this helps!
