OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (ladiesman217):

it looks like a 45-45-90 triangle

OpenStudy (phi):

I think you should use trig to find x. Do you know what the sine of x is equal to ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7/9?

OpenStudy (phi):

sine x = opposite side over hypotenuse = 7/9 you need a calculator to find what x is in degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright. I got it. Thanks!
