Answer 1

what u want to know

Answer 2

the meaning of life

Answer 3

i cant help with that

Answer 4

Answer 5

I would try to figure out what trig function to use.
look at 14 deg angle. You know the side= 14.3 (is it adjacent, opposite or the hypotenuse? for angle 14 deg)
you want side x (is it adj, opp, or hyp)
once you decide. that tells you what trig function to use

Answer 6

can you show me the steps.

Answer 8

I think the answer is 57.3. is this wrong or write.

Answer 9

i believe it is write

Answer 10

right

Answer 11

how did you get it?

Answer 12

I divide 14.3/tan 14

Answer 13

tan 14= 14.3/x
or
x= 14.3/tan(14)

so that looks good.
that gives
x= 57.354...
if you round to the nearest tenth , that is 57.4 (the number to the right of 3 is 5 or bigger, so round up)

Answer 14

thanks
