Question

** This is Directions: Find each missing measure. 1. 15 26° х

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 13.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Angle, $\theta=26^{\circ}$

base, b = x

Hypotenuse, H = 15

We need to find the measure of x. It can be solved using trigonometry i.e.

$\cos\theta=\dfrac{b}{H}$

Put all the values,

$\cos(26)=\dfrac{x}{15}\\\\x=15\times \cos(26)\\\\x=13.48$

So, the value of x is equal to 13.48.
