Question

Solve for X and round to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

Answer:

Pretty sure it's 20.24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know the side adjacent to the reference angle and you want to find the side opposite, you're going to need to use tangent, which is opp/adj.

tan(39) = $\frac{x}{25}$

Find the tangent of 39...

0.8097 is the approximate value. So...

0.8097 = $\frac{x}{25}$

Now, switch the sides to make it easier.

$\frac{x}{25}$ = 0.8097

Multiply both sides by 25.

x = 20.24
