Answer:
x = 74.2
Explanation:
Recall: SOH CAH TOA
Reference angle (θ) = 70°
Angle opposite reference angle = x
Adjacent side = 28
Since we have Adjacent side and opposite side, we would apply the trigonometric ratio, TOA:
Tan θ = Opp/Adj
Substitute
Tan 70 = x/27
27*Tan 70 = x
x = 74.2 (nearest tenth)
