Let's solve ~

since the given triangle is an right angled triangle we can use Trigonometric ratios here :


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: \tan(x) = (9)/(12)


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: \tan(x) = (3)/(4)


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x= tan { }^( - 1) \bigg( (3)/(4) \bigg)


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x \approx37 \degree

Answer:

x = 36.9°

Given:

opposite side: 9

adjacent side: 12

angle: x

Using tane rule:


\sf tan(x) = (opposite)/(adjacent)

Solve:


\sf tan(x) = (9)/(12)


\sf x = tan^(-1)((9)/(12))


\sf x = 36.87


\sf x = 36.9
