The given triangle is a right angle. To solve this, we can use;

sin theta = opposite / hypotenuse ; where theta =20 ; h = 10
sin (20) = x / 10
x = 3.42

The answer is the fourth one, 3.42

There are two -main- approaches to answer this problem. By using the sine identity, or applying law of sines.

We'll do the sine trig. identity, as it is the most effective.

Given an angle '\alpha' in a right triangle, 'sin( \alpha )' is defined as the opposite side of the triangle to the given angle, over the triangle's hypotenuse.

So, for this setup:
sin(20)= \frac{x}{10}

Now, we solve for x:
x=10sin(20)=3.42

So, answer is 3.4

Find 2 positive real numbers that differ by 1 and have a product of 1
velikii [3]
A) x -y =1
B) x * y =1
B) y = 1/x

A) x -(1/x) = 1
Multiplying both sides by "x"
A) x^2 -1 = x
A) x^2 -x -1 = 0

Solving by the quadratic formula
x = 1.618 and
y = .618

Interestingly, the number 1.6180339... is called the "phi ratio" or the "golden ratio".
