The given triangle is a right angled triangle.
The length of the hypotenuse is 17 units.
One of the legs of the triangle measure x units.
The one of the angles of the right triangle is 60°
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
The value of x can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.
Thus, we have;
Substituting ,
and
in the above formula, we get;
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 17, we get;
Simplifying, we get;
Multiplying, we get;
Rounding off to the nearest tenth, we get;
Thus, the value of x is 14.7
