Answer 1

WX = 7.9

Explanation:

By applying tangent rule (law of tan) in the given right triangle WXY.

tan(W) =
`\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}`

tan(27)° =
`\frac{\text{XY}}{\text{WX}}`

0.509525 =
`\frac{4}{\text{WX}}`

WX =
`(4)/(0.509525)`

WX = 7.85

WX ≈ 7.9

Therefore, length of side WX is 7.9 units.
