From the provided image, we are provided with the opposite side, which is 11, and the adjacent side which is x.

The suitable trigonometry ratio for this is the Tangent.


\begin{gathered} \text{Tan 66}^0=\text{ }\frac{opposite}{\text{adjacent}} \\ \text{Tan 66}^0=(11)/(x) \\ 2.246=(11)/(x) \\ x=(11)/(2.246) \\ x=4.89 \\ To\text{ the nearest tenth, x = 4.9} \end{gathered}

Hence, the missing side is 4.9
