Given the triangle number 7:

As shown, there is a right angle triangle

The hypotenuse of the triangle = x

The opposite side to the angle 63 = 16

Using the sine function to find x as follows:


\begin{gathered} \sin 63=(opposite)/(hypotenuse) \\ \\ \sin 63=(16)/(x) \\ \\ x=(16)/(\sin 63)=17.957 \end{gathered}

Rounding the answer to the nearest tenth

So, the answer will be x = 18
