Answer: 33.49

Explanation:

By the given information, the hypotenuse of the triangle = 58 units

The perpendicular side of the right triangle = 32 units which is the side opposite to the angle x.

We know that


\sin x=\frac{\text{side opposite to x}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \sin x =(32)/(58)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\sin^(-1)(32)/(58)

Using calculator, we have


x=33.48537662\approx33.49^(\circ)

Hence, the value of x = 33.49
