Question

What is the value of x?​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

We have the triangles 30° - 60° - 90° and 45° - 45° - 90°.

The sides are in proportions:

30° - 60° - 90° ⇒ 1 : √3 : 2

45° - 45° - 90° ⇒ 1 : 1 : √2

======================================================

$SR=ST\sqrt3\to ST\sqrt3=2\sqrt3\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ \sqrt3\\\\ST=2\\\\TR=2ST\to TR=2(2)=4\\\\RQ=TR\to RQ=4\to x=4$
