Question

In this triangle, what is the value of x? Enter your answer, rounded to the nearest tenth, in the box.

Answer 1

x = 56.7

Explanation:

Answer 2

x ≈ 56.7°

Explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the sine ratio to solve for x

sin x° =
`(opposite)/(hypotenuse)` =
`(66)/(79)`, hence

x =
`sin^(-1)` (
`(66)/(79)` ) ≈ 56.7°
