Answer:


14 √(3)

Explanation:

Here you use the 30-60-90 triangle

Note that the side length opposite of the 60 degree triangle is root of 3 times greater than the side opposite of the 30 degree angle.

Here, x is the opposite of 60 degree angle.

7 times root of 4 is opposite of the 30 degree angle,

So we have

So this means


7 √(4) *( √(3) ) = x

Note that


7 * √(4) = 7 * 2 = 14

So we have


14 √(3) = x
