Answer:


x = 9.7

Explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find x

Using law of sine, we have:


(a)/(sin A) = (b)/(Sin B)

So, we have:


(x)/(sin 32) = (18)/(Sin 100)

Make x the subject


x = (18 * sin 32)/(Sin 100)


x = (18 * 0.5299)/(0.9848)


x = 9.685


x = 9.7 -- approximated
