ANSWER:

The value of x is 16.49

Explanation:

We can calculate the value of x by means of the tangent trignometric function, which is the following


\begin{gathered} \tan \theta=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} \\ \theta=70\text{\degree} \\ \text{opposite = x} \\ \text{adjacent = 6} \end{gathered}

Replacing and solving for x:


\begin{gathered} \tan 70=(x)/(6) \\ x=6\cdot\tan 70 \\ x=16.49 \end{gathered}
