Preliminaries:

SOH CAH TOA

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have the Opposite side and Adjacent side (OA) we will use the trigonometric function of Tangent.

The tangent equation is:

tan(x) = (O/A)

Substituting in our values we get tan(x) = (18/43)

To solve for x, we take the inverse tangent and get the equation:

x = tan⁻¹(18/43)

Use a calculator and you will get that x ≈ 22.7°
