Hi there! We can find the value of x by using this equation.

$\large \boxed{tanx = (19)/(23) }$

If you remember, tanx = opposite/adjacent. We focus on the angle x currently.

Now that you might wanna ask if there is a value of x that makes 19/23. The answer is yes but in decimal.

$\large{arctan( (19)/(23) )} = x$

You might wanna put arctan(19/23) in a calculator since it's not really possible to get the square root like value by yourself.

arctan(19/23) is 0.69

Then we round up and get 0.7

Hence, the value of x ≈ 0.7
