Question

Find the value of the variable if necessary round your answer to the nearest tenth​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 24.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of x

To do this, we are to use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

From what we have;

9 faces the angle given as it is the opposite, x is below and it is the adjacent

The trigonometric identity that links opposite to adjacent is the tan which is the ratio of former to latter

Thus, we have that;

tan 20 = 9/x

x = 9/tan 20

x = 24.7
