Use the Pythagorean theorem to find x.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
24^2+10^2=x^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Then use the law of sines to find one of the missing angles.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@coolaidd did u get that?????????
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You don't use to use the law of sines...

It's a right angled triangle. Just use SOH CAH TOA.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not really :/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@coolaidd lets go step by step first we have to find the value of x
do u know Pythagorean theorem?????????
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You know the pythagorean theorem right?
C^2=A^2+B^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
We know two sides, so we can easily find the third side. C is the Hypotenuse of the triangle which we are attempting to find.

what is A and B?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1) x^2 = 10^2 + 24^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=26cm
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x^2 = 10^2 + 24^2=26
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok @coolaidd

1) x = 26
2) m<B = tan(10/24) = tan(5/12)
3) m<A = tan(24/10) = tan(12/5)
