Question

Solve for x please help !!!!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

x ≈ 20.31

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying tangent rule in the given right triangle,

tan(55°) = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}$

Measure of the opposite side = 29 units

Measure of the adjacent side = x

Substitute these values in the expression,

tan(55) = $\frac{29}{x}$

x = $\frac{29}{tan(55)}$

x = 20.306

x ≈ 20.31
