HELP DUE IN 30 MINS!

Use right triangle trig to solve for the missing angles. Round all answers to the nearest degree (whole number).

x=??

Answer 1

relationship between base and perpendicular is given by tan angle

tan angle = perpendicular/base

tan angle =21/41

angle =tan -¹(21/41)=27

Answer 2

27

Explanation:

In a right angle triangle, the tan is defined as opposite side / adjacent side of the reference angle

The reference angle is ?

The opposite side is 21

The adjacent side is 41

Tan(?) = 21/41

Tan(?) = 0.5122

? = tan-1(0.5122)

? = 27.12 rounded to the nearest degree = 27
