Question

In this triangle, what is the value of x? Enter your answer, rounded to the nearest tenth, in the box. x = A right triangle with one leg labeled 26 centimeters and the other leg labeled 53 centimeters. The angle that is opposite the leg labeled 26 centimeters is labeled x degrees.

Answer 1

Answer:

The measure of angle x is $26.1\°$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we know that

The tangent of angle x is equal to divide the opposite side angle x to the adjacent side angle x

$tan(x)=\frac{26}{53}$

$x=arctan(\frac{26}{53})=26.1\°$
