The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we start with the given information about triangle PQR. ### Step 1: Understand the triangle We know that triangle PQR is a right triangle with the right angle at Q. This means that the angles in triangle PQR are: - Angle P - Angle Q = 90 degrees - Angle R = 45 degrees ### Step 2: Find angle P Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, we can find angle P as follows: \[ \text{Angle P} = 180^\circ - \text{Angle Q} - \text{Angle R} \] Substituting the known values: \[ \text{Angle P} = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 45^\circ = 45^\circ \] ### Step 3: Calculate tan P Now that we know that angle P is 45 degrees, we can find the value of \(\tan P\): \[ \tan P = \tan 45^\circ = 1 \] ### Step 4: Substitute into the expression We need to find the value of \((\tan P - \frac{1}{2})\): \[ \tan P - \frac{1}{2} = 1 - \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression Now, we simplify the expression: \[ 1 - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{2} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{2} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \((\tan P - \frac{1}{2})\) is: \[ \frac{1}{2} \] ---
