Question

Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. 15 27

Answer 1

Answer:

x ≈ 1318.2

Step-by-step explanation:

$tan(\frac{x}{15}) = 27$         Tangent = opposite over adjacent

$tan^{-1}[tan(\frac{x}{15})] = tan^{-1}(27)$

$\frac{x}{15} = tan^{-1}(27)$

$x = 15[tan^{-1}(27)]$

x ≈ 1318.2
