Answer:

x= 25.5 not rounded x=25.51393657

Explanation:

Decide what trig ration you need/want to use. The 27 degrees are opposite of the 13 and adjacent to the x which means your ratio should be o/a or 13/x. The trig ratio needed is Tangent. Now you can write the equation as tan(27)=13/x and start solving.

tan(27)=13/x multiply the x on both sides and you'll have x * tan(27)=13 and decide which to put into your calculator and you'll get x=25.51393657 rounded as 25.5
