Find x

The relationship between x, 47 and $17^{\circ}$ is:

$sin(17^{\circ}) = \frac{x}{47}$

i.e.

$sin(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$

Solving further:

$sin(17^{\circ}) = \frac{x}{47}$

Make x the subject

$x = 47 * sin(17^{\circ})$

$x = 47 * 0.2924$

$x =13.7428$

$x =13.7$ --- approximated
