Question

What is the value of X?​

Answer 1

The answer would be 5 and something to help you when doing these questions is using sin tan cos. If you search it up it shows which one to use when it comes to equations like this. And when you find it you enter it in your calculator. Since you need the opposite your gonna use COS. Cos(60) = 10 and then your gonna put an x under cos(60) as if it was a fraction and do cross multiply. And that’s how you will get 5.

Answer 2

5 * sqrt(3)

Explanation:

The sine of 60 degrees is equal to x/10 because x is opposite to it and 10 is the hypotenuse. Since the sine of 60 degrees is equal to sqrt(3)/2, sqrt(3)/2 = x/10. Because 5sqrt(3)/10 = sqrt(3)/2, 5sqrt(3)/10 = x/10 and therefore 5sqrt(3) = x.
