Question

What is the value of X?

Answer 1

Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find LJ

Angle L = 60 (180 - 30 - 90)

The cosine of an angle is equal to the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.

cos(L)=adj/hyp

cos(60)=LJ/40√2

LJ = cos(60)*40√2

LJ = 20√2

Now you can use LJ to find x. You also know the value of each angle, 45

x=20√2⋅cos(45)

x=20
