Question

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary.

Answer 1

x = 36.1°

Explanation:

In the Right-angled triangle, opposite side of angle x and adjacent side of angle x is given, and we have to find the angle x. To find angle x, we can use the trigonometry ratio 'tan x'.

`\sf Tan \ x = (opposite \ side \ of \ \angle X)/(adjacent \ side \ of \ \angle x)`

`\sf = (22)/(30)\\\\ = 0.73`

`x = arctan \ (0.73)`

= 36.13

x = 36.1°
