Question

Need to find the missing length and round to nearest tenth. I'm a bit confused.

Answer 1

ANSWER

15.9

EXPLANATION

Given:

A right-triangle with two sides and an angle

Desired Outcome:

The value of x

Apply the SOH CAH TOA rule

$\begin{gathered} tan\theta=\frac{x}{34} \\ x=34\times0.4663 \\ x=15.8544 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the value of x is 15.9 (rounded to the nearest tenth).
