Answer:25.2

Explanation:

To find the value of x, we first need to find the missing angle value, which is 180-90-59, making it 31.

Now that we have that value, we can use SOH to find the hypotenuse.

The equation would look something like this:


\sin\left(31\right)=(13)/(x)

Which we can change to get the x value like this:


(13)/(\sin\left(31\right))=x

This makes the X value equal to 25.241.

Since you need it as the nearest tenth, you can round it down to 25.2.
