What do you mean no? You are trying to find the angle x. In relation to that angle, the side opposite is 11 and the side adjacent is 33.

oh ok@Mertsj

OpenStudy (mertsj):

\[\tan x=\frac{11}{33}=.33333...\] \[x= \tan^{-1} (.33333....)\] \[x= 18.4^{o},198.4^{o}+180n\]

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Well, since it's a triangle, just 18.4 degrees.
