Please help

Answer 1

x = 78.4 units

Explanation:

here given x as hypotenuse and 65 as adjacent

using this the formula for cos can be formed

`(adjacent )/(hypotenuse )` = cos(34°)

`(65)/(hypotenuse )` = cos(34°)

`(65)/(cos(34)) = hypotenuse`

hypotenuse = 78.4 units

As a result, x = hypotenuse, x = 78.4 units
