Question

Find the value of x to the nearest tenth 10 and 35

Answer 1

We can use the tangent rule for this problem because the opposite x is unknown and adjacent side 10 is knwon. Since,

`tan \theta= (Opposite side)/(Adjacent side)`

`tan 35=(x)/(10)`

`0.474=(x)/(10)` Since tan 35°=0.474

`0.474*10=(x)/(10)*10` Multiplying each sides by 10.

4.74=x

x=4.7 (Rounded to nearest tenth)
