Answer: x = 9.0
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given right angle triangle,
the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle is x
With m∠39 as the reference angle,
the adjacent side of the right angle triangle is 7
The unknown side represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.
To determine x, we would apply
the cosine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as
Cos θ = adjacent side/hypotenuse. Therefore,
Cos 39 = 7/x
x = 7/cos 39 = 7/0.777
x = 9.0 to the nearest tenth
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
An equilateral triangle has three equal sides and three equal interior angles (the measure of each interior angle is equal to 60 degrees)
see the attached figure to better understand tyhe problem
Let
h ----> the height of an equilateral triangle
b ---> the length side of an equilateral triangle
In the right triangle ABD
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

substitute the given values

square root both sides
Ok since it’s a 45 45 90 right triangle then both sides equal 5. And to find x you do
A^2 +b^2=c^2
5^2 +5^2= c^2
25+25=c^2
50=c^2
Take the square root of both sides and you get X= 5 square root of 2 or 7.071(rounded)
