Question

Pls find side x which is opposite

Answer 1

9.1 =x

Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions.

We want to find x, which is opposite the angle and we know the hypotenuse.

We can use sin theta, which is the opposite side over hypotenuse.

sin theta = opp /hyp

sin 49 = x/12

12 sin 49 =x

9.05651=x

To 1 decimal place

9.1 =x
