Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is a right angled triangle,
Tangent x° =opposite/adjacent
Tan x° =12/8=1.5
X° =Tan inverse(1.5) =56.30°
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given triangle is a right angle triangle.
From the given right angle triangle,
The unknown side represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
With m∠x as the reference angle,
the adjacent side of the right angle triangle is 8
the opposite side of the right angle triangle is 12
To determine m∠x, we would apply
the tangent trigonometric ratio.
Tan θ, = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,
Tan x = 12/8 = 1.5
x = = tan^-1(1.5)
x = 56.3° to the nearest tenth.
