Answer:

x ≈ 34.28

Explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan29° =
(opposite)/(adjacent) =
(19)/(x) ( multiply both sides by x )

x × tan29° = 19 ( divide both sides by tan29° )

x =
(19)/(tan29) ≈ 34.28 ( to the nearest hundredth )

Answer:

The answer is option B

34.28

Explanation:

To solve for x we use tan

tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent

From the question

The adjacent is x

The opposite is 19

So we have

tan 29 = 19/ x

x = 19/ tan 29

x = 34.276

x = 34.28 to the nearest hundredth

Hope this helps
