Question

Find the value of x in the given right triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

angle x = ?

Opposite side = 7

Adjacent side = 10

Process

To answer this question use trigonometric functions. The trigonometric function that relates the Opposite side and the adjacent side is the tangent.

             Tan x = Opposite side / Adjacent side

- Substitution

             Tan x = 7 / 10

- Simplification

              Tan x = 0.7

- Result

               Tan⁻¹ x = x = 34.99 or x ≈ 35°
