Thank you for the correction. Let's revisit the problem with the correct side lengths:

• The side opposite to $M$ is $KL$, which has a length of $32$.
• The side adjacent to $M$ is $ML$, which has a length of $24$.

Now, we calculate $\tan M$ using the formula:

$\tan M = \frac{\text{opposite side to } M}{\text{adjacent side to } M}$

$\tan M = \frac{KL}{ML} = \frac{32}{24}$

Next, we simplify $\frac{32}{24}$:

$\frac{32}{24} = \frac{32 \div 8}{24 \div 8} = \frac{4}{3}$

So, the correct answer is:

$\tan M = \frac{4}{3}$

Do you need more details or have any questions about this solution?

Here are 8 related questions for practice:

1. How would you find $\tan L$ in this triangle?
2. What is the sine of angle $M$ in this triangle?
3. What is the cosine of angle $M$ in this triangle?
4. How do you calculate the hypotenuse $MK$ using the Pythagorean theorem?
5. If angle $M$ is 45 degrees, what would $\tan M$ be?
6. How would you verify the simplification of $\frac{32}{24}$?
7. What would $\tan M$ be if the side lengths of the triangle were doubled?
8. What is the relationship between $\tan M$, $\sin M$, and $\cos M$?

Tip: When solving trigonometric problems, double-check that you’ve correctly identified the opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse sides for the angle in question.
