Question

Solve for x.

11cm

5cm

x°

x=[?]°

Answer 1

65.56°

Explanation:

Trigonometric ratios:

Opposite side of x° is 11 cm and adjacent side of x° is 5 cm.

To find x°, we have to use Tan ratio.

`\boxed{\bf Tan \ x = (opposite \ side \ of \ \angle x )/(adjacent \ side \ of \angle x)}`

`\sf = (11)/(5)\\\\ = 2.2`

`\sf x = tan^(-1) \ 2.2\\\\ x = 65.56`
