Question

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 8.8

Step-by-step explanation:

take 20 degree as reference angle .the,

hypotenuse = OQ = x (hypotenuse is always opposite of 90 degree)

perpendicular(opposite) = PQ 3 (opposite of reference angle is perpendicular or also called as opposite)

base(adjacent) = OP (side which lies on the same line where 90 degree and reference angle)

using sin rule

sin 20 = opposite / hypotenuse

0.34 = 3 / x

x = 3/0.34

x = 8.82

x = 8.8

Answer 2

X=8.8 is what is written
