Question

Find the measure of angle x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (please type the numerical answer only)

A right triangle is shown with one leg measuring 12 and the hypotenuse is labeled 13. An angle that is not 90 degrees is marked x.

Answer 1

adjacent is 12

Answer 2

There are two angles that are not 90 degrees. Which angle is marked "x" in the diagram?

Or you can simply post a screenshot of the diagram or draw one yourself using the "Draw" button below the reply box.

Answer 5

The angle "x" is formed by an adjacent side and a hypotenuse.
Cosine is a trig function that relates the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.
cos(x) = adjacent / hypotenuse = 12/13
Angle x = inverse cosine of (12/13) = ?
Use a calculator to find the inverse cosine.
