The value of angle x is approx 49⁰.

How the measure of x is calculated.

Trigonometric ratios are ratios of the sides in a right-angled triangle, including sine, cosine, and tangent etc.

From the figure, the given triangle is a right angle triangle

Let us use trigonometric ratios

tan x = opposite/adjacent

Opposite to the angle x = 7.7 cm

The adjacent = 8.9 cm

tan(x) = 8.9/7.7

tan(x) = 1.1558

x = tan⁻¹(1.1558)

x = 49.13⁰

approx 49⁰

The value of angle x is approx 49⁰
