Answer:
Explanation:
Hello There!
Once again we need to use trigonometry to solve for X
Here are the Trigonometric Ratios:
Sin = Opposite divided by hypotenuse
Cos = adjacent divided by hypotenuse
Tan = Opposite divided by adjacent
We are given the adjacent side of x (45) and the hypotenuse (75) so we need to use cos
Remember cos = adjacent divided by hypotenuse
Now we create an equation
now we have
like always we want to get rid of cos
to do so we take the inverse of cos (arccos^-1) and apply that to each side
finally we round to the nearest degree
we're left with x = 53
