Answer 2

\(\large \tan(46) = \frac{x}{12}\)

Answer 3

to find x, we need to isolate x.
so wat should be our first step ?

Answer 4

multiply 12 both sides ?

Answer 5

yes multiply.

Answer 6

\(\large \large 12 \times \tan(46) = 12 \times \frac{x}{12}\)

Answer 7

so 12 gets crossed out right.

Answer 8

\(\large \large 12 \times \tan(46) = \cancel{12} \times \frac{x}{\cancel{12}}\)

Answer 9

yes crossed out

Answer 10

\(\large \large 12 \times \tan(46) = x\)

Answer 11

\(\large x = \large 12 \times \tan(46) \)
