Answer:

x = 49.6°

Explanation:

Find the image attached;

From the image;

opposite side = 16

Hypotenuse = 21

Angle of inclination = x

Using the SOH identity

sinx = opposite/hypotenuse

sin x = 16/21

sin x = 0.7619

x = arcsin 0.7619

x = 49.6° (to the nearest tenth of a degree)

Find the angle represented by x rounded to the nearest tenth of a degree-example-1
