Answer:

A. x = 6.54

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Angle (d) = 33°

Hypotenuse = 12

To find the opposite side, x?

In a right-angled triangle;


Sin(d) = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}

Substituting into the equation, we have;


Sin(33) = \frac {x}{12}

Cross-multiplying, we have;


x = Sin(33)*12


x = 0.5446*12

x = 6.5357

Rounding up to the nearest hundredths;

x = 6.54
