Answer:
x = 5.13 yards to the nearest tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram is redrawn and labelled in the attached photo.
It is labelled as triangle ABC. Angle A is determined to be 25 degrees. This is because it is alternate to 25 degrees at the top.
To find x, we will apply trigonometric ratio
Tan # =opposite side / adjacent side
Where # = 25 degrees
Opposite side = x
Adjacent side = 11
Tan 25 = x/11
x = 11tan25
x = 11× 0.4663
x = 5.1293 yards
x = 5.13 yards to the nearest tenth.
