Answer:

Explanation:

This is aright angle triangle, we can apply any of the trigonometry ratio formulae

SOH, CAH TOA

We can apply any of them since we know the opposite, adjacent and the hypotenuse

Therefore, let use sin

Sinx=opposite / hypotenuse

Opposite is the side facing the unknown angle while hypotenuse is the longest side or the side facing the right angle triangle

Then, opposite is 45 and hypotenuse is 53

Sinx= opp/hyp

Sinx=45/53

Sinx=0.8491

x=arcsin(0.8491)

x=58.11°

x is approximately 58°

The last option is the correct option
