Question

Solve for xx. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Answer 1

Answer: 1.1

Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use SOH CAH TOA.

We have adjacent and we are trying to find the opposite, so we can use tan (TOA).

tan(23) =
`(x)/(2)`

2 tan(23) = x

x = 1.0355303138

xx

= (1.0355303138)(1.0355303138)

= 1.07232303

= 1.1
