Solve for x given two sides

Solution

x is an angle hence we are gonna use the formula Sin

Sin 0 = opp/hyp

0 represents theta.


Sin 0 = opp/hyp
Sin 0 = 27/33

Put 27/33 in decimal form

= 0.8181

Transpose to make 0 the subject


Sin 0 = 0.8181

0 = Sin-1 0.8181

When adding Sin from one side to another it becomes Sin inverse.

0 = Sin-1 08181

Now we find the answer

0 = Sin-1 0.8181

= 54.89 degrees

Therefore x is equal to 54.9 to the nearest tenth.
