Answer:
X= -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Use trigonometry to solve for x.
The tangent function is defined to be opposite side divided by the adjacent side.
tan(78) = x/10
tan(78)(10) = x
47.0463010948 = x
We now round off to two decimal places. In other words, we round off to the nearest tenths.
47.05 = x
Done!
The value of 9 is 90 because it is in the tens place.
16, 36, 40
Set the problem up as 4x+9x+10x= 92
26x= 92
X= 4
Plug back in to get the lengths of the sides (shown above)
