Answer:

12.8

Explanation:

Tan 52° = x/10

x = Tan 52° * 10

x = 1.2799 × 10

x = 12.799

Rounding to the nearest tenth, we have

x = 12.8

Answer:

Explanation:

Let's use 52 as our degree.

The adjacent side to 52 is x, and the opposite is 10.

Since it's gonna be opposite over adjacent, we need to use the Tangent ratio.

(tan)

Now let's start our calculations.

Tan52 = x/10

(Tan52)(10) = x

x = 12.79941532

Let's round that to the nearest tenth place.

x = 12.8 units

(Don't forget the degree sign for 52 in Tan52!!!)

Hope that helped! :)
