Firstly we calculate the height(h)...,

by using trigonometry ratios

;tan 45° = h/5

;where.. h = 5 tan 45°

;h = 5

Then we calculate the side x...using the height h and the angle of 30°

by also using trigonometry ratios

; sin 30° = 5/x

;where.. x = 5/(sin 30°)

Hence...., x = 10

Answer: x = 10
