Question

Please help ugh.

Use ΔDEF, shown below, to answer the question that follows:

Triangle DEF where angle E is a right angle. DE measures x. DF measures 55. Angle F measures 49 degrees.

What is the value of x rounded to the nearest hundredth? Type the numeric answer only in the box below.

Answer 1

x=41.51

Explanation:

ΔDEF, where angle E is a right angle, DE measures x, DF measures 55 and angle F measures 49 degree.

Since it is a right angle triangle,

Perpendicular DE=x, hypotenuse DF=55 and ∠F=49°
