The trigonometry diagram has been attached below :

To obtain the angle θ ;

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan θ = 40 / 25

Tan θ = 1.6

θ = tan^-1(1.6)

θ = 57.99°

1225*(1.578*10^-5)=1.933*10^-2

1.578*10^-5= 0.00001578

1225*0.00001578=0.0193305

0.0193305=1.933*10^-2

What is the value of x? A. 4 B. 4√3 C. 8 D. 8√3

Paladinen [302]

The answer is B. I used the trigonometric sine formula

$\sin(60) = \frac{x}{8 }$

$\sin(60) \times 8 = x$

$x = 6.93$

And

$4 \sqrt{3} = 6.93$
