Answer:

We are going to use Cosine
(adjacent)/(Hypotenuse)


(45)/(52)

Now, we use the inverse of cosine


cos^(-1) (45/52) = 30.1 (rounded to the nearest tenth of a degree)

your answer is x = 30.1 degrees.

Answer:

x ≈ 30.1°

Explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos x =
(adjacent)/(hypotenuse) =
(HJ)/(GJ) =
(45)/(52) , then

x =
cos^(-1) (
(45)/(52) ) ≈ 30.1° ( to the nearest tenth )
