Answer 1

`x = 6.6`

Explanation:

Given ∆WXY,

<X = 15°

<Y = 23°

y = 10

x = ?

To find side x, use the Law of sines as shown below:

`(x)/(sin X) = (y)/(sin Y)`

Plug in the values of y, Y, and X

`(x)/(sin 15) = (10)/(sin 23)`

`(x)/(0.2588) = (10)/(0.3907)`

Cross multiply

`x*0.3907 = 10*0.2588`

Divide both sides by 0.3907 to solve for x

`(x*0.3907)/(0.3907) = (10*0.2588)/(0.3907)`

`x = (2.588)/(0.3907)`

`x = 6.624`

`x = 6.6` (to nearest tenth)
