Should be 37 degrees

We know the lengths of the adjacent and opposite sides when looking at the angle x, so we use those two sides to find the trig ratio.

So we use Opposite/adjacent (Tangent) Which is 54/72=0.75

Now we get out the trig ratio table. Because we used the tangent ratio (O/A) , we use that column to look for the closest number to 0.75.
The closest is 0.754, and the degree for it is 37 degrees

Rlly hope this helps :)))
