Question

Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer:

x ≈ 55.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin20° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{19}{x}$ ( multiply both sides by x )

x × sin20° = 19 ( divide both sides by sin20° )

x = $\frac{19}{sin20}$ ≈ 55.6 ( to the nearest tenth )
