Complete Question

In ΔVWX, w = 780 cm, ∠X =21° and ∠W=146°. Find the length of x, to the nearest 10th of a centimeter.

Answer:

499.9cm

Explanation:

We solve for length x using the Sine rule

w/ sin W = x /sin X

Cross Multiply

x × sin W = w × sin X

x = w × sin X/ sin W

x = 780 × sin 21°/ sin 146°

x = 499.88 cm

Approximately to nearest tenth = 499.9cm
