Explanation:

remember : the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.

the law of sines :

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C) with the sides being opposite to the angles.

so,

the opposite angle of x is

180 - 90 - 44 = 46 degrees.

x/sin(46) = 6/sin(90) = 6

x = 6×sin(46) = 4.316038802...

rounded x = 4.3
