Answer:


x = 4.9 (1 dp)

Explanation:

Use trig ratio
sin(\theta)=(O)/(H)

where
\theta is the angle, O is the side opposite the angle and H is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.

Given:


  • \theta=55
  • O =
    y = 4
  • H =
    x


\implies sin(55)=(4)/(x)


\implies x=(4)/(sin(55))


\implies x = 4.9 (1 dp)
