Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with rational denominator.
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

sqrt(20)

Step-by-step explanation:

The two perpendicular side lengths are equal, so using Pythagoras theorem:

x = sqrt( sqrt(10)^2 + sqrt(10)^2 )

x = sqrt(10 + 10)

x = sqrt(20)

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
timofeeve [1]

Answer: 41.1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we need to use SOH-CAH-TOA. SOH-CAH-TOA is since, cosine, and tangent. The O, A, H stands for opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse respectively.

Looking at the figure, we see 47°. The labelled angles are adjacent and the hypotenuse. Therefore, we use CAH or cosine.

cos(47)=\frac{28}{x}             [multiply both sides by x]

xcos(47)=28           [divide both sides by cos(47)]

x=\frac{28}{cos(47)}

When we plug that into a calculator, we get x=41.1.
