13.3 (option D)
Step-by-step explanation:
angle = 56°
opposite = side opposite the angle = x
adjacent = base = 9
We would apply the trigonomretry ratio SOHCAHTOA
Since we know adjacent and we are looking for the opposite, we would use tan ratio (TOA)
tan 56° = opposite/adjacent
![\begin{gathered} \tan 56\degree=(x)/(9) \\ x\text{ = 9(tan 56}\degree) \end{gathered}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/i7s5gucpa9yiwunlzwya0hyl44amtynnb7.png)
![\begin{gathered} x\text{ = 9(}1.4826) \\ x\text{ = 13.3434} \end{gathered}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/b4lyl8520pljef109uitrs9sbx3hox7pq1.png)
To the nearest tenth, the missing side length x is 13.3 (option D)
