Answer:
x ≈ 13.7
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant trig relation is ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(58°) = 22/x
x = 22/tan(58°) ≈ 13.747
The value of x is about 13.7 units.
Well, given that a quarter equals 5 nickels, we can reason that, in order to get 12 coins, we would have to get 10 nickels (equals 50 cents) and 2 quarters (the other 50 cents, to make a dollar).
You didn't say whether you needed this expressed in a mathematical formula, but knowing the answer already, it shouldn't be hard to come up with one if necessary.
Hope this helps.
