Answer:  x = 9.6

=========================================================

Explanation:

We have two smaller right triangles that are glued together so to speak.

The base of the smaller triangle on the left is 5 while the height is h.

Let's use the tangent rule to find the value of h

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(55) = h/5

5*tan(55) = h

h = 5*tan(55)

h = 7.14074003371058

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. That value of h above is approximate.

--------------------------

Now focus on the smaller triangle on the right

It has the same height value h. This side is the adjacent side while x is the hypotenuse.

We'll use the cosine ratio

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(42) = h/x

cos(42) = 7.14074003371058/x

x*cos(42) = 7.14074003371058

x = 7.14074003371058/cos(42)

x = 9.6088135029715

x = 9.6

What two numbers have 2,3,5 as factors
lukranit [14]
Two numbers with factors 2,3,5 are 30 and 60.
when we multiply 2 x 3 x 5 = 30
we get answer 30 and then again multiply with the number that is greater than 1 is 2 and then we get 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
So the first two numbers with factors 2, 3 and 5 are 30 and 60.
