Question

@vinnv226 Question is below.

Answer 1

You have an angle of 24 degrees, and you know the adjacent side is 11 and the hypotenuse is x. The trig function that uses hypotenuse and adjacent is cosine. The cosine of 24 is then adj/hyp = 11/x:
\[\cos24=\frac{ 11 }{ x }\]You can rearrange this to get x:
\[x=\frac{ 11 }{ \cos 24 }\]

Answer 2

how do i solve for x? step by step please. :)

Answer 3

I've already rearranged it to get x by itself. I multiplied both sides by x and divided both sides by cos 24 in one step. Just get cos24 on your calculator and divide it into 11.

Answer 4
