Answer:

The value of x is 2.5 to the nearest tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the trigonometry functions

- In any right angle triangle:

# The side opposite to the right angle is called the hypotenuse

# The other two sides are called the legs of the right angle

* If the name of the triangle is ABC, where B is the right angle

∴ The hypotenuse is AC

∴ AB and BC are the legs of the right angle

- ∠A and ∠C are two acute angles

- For angle A

# sin(A) = opposite/hypotenuse

∵ The opposite to ∠A is BC

∵ The hypotenuse is AC

∴ sin(A) = BC/AC

# cos(A) = adjacent/hypotenuse

∵ The adjacent to ∠A is AB

∵ The hypotenuse is AC

∴ cos(A) = AB/AC  

# tan(A) = opposite/adjacent

∵ The opposite to ∠A is BC

∵ The adjacent to ∠A is AB

∴ tan(A) = BC/AB

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ x is opposite to the angle of measure 23°

∵ 6 is adjacent to the angle of measure 23°

∴ tan(23°) = x/6 ⇒ × 6 to both sides

∴ x = 6 × tan(23°) = 2.5

* The value of x is 2.5 to the nearest tenth

Answer: x=2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the identity:

tan\alpha=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

You can identify in the figure that for the angle 67°:

\alpha=67\°\\opposite=6\\adjacent=x

Then you need to substitute these values into  tan\alpha=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} and solve for "x":

tan(67\°)=\frac{6}{x}\\\\xtan(67\°)=6\\\\x=\frac{6}{tan(67\°)}\\\\x=2.5

Which values are solutions to x<16?
leonid [27]

Answer:

Option D.

x can take values from 15downwards. It can't be 16 because the expression clearly states that x is less than 16. So x can take value from any number below 16.
