Answer:

x=9.4

Explanation:

We can use the law of cosines to find the value for x. We need to sides and the included angle. a and b are the sides and C is the included angle

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 − 2ab cos(C)

x^2= 9.2^2 + 11.2^2 -2*9.2*11.2 cos(54)

= 84.64+125.44-206.08cos54

x^2 = 88.9492

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(88.9492)

x= 9.43129

To one decimal place

x=9.4
