x=40 according to the Pythagoras’ theorem

OpenStudy (loser66):

It's not Pythagorean, it is tangent, and x is an angle, not the hypotenuse in the right triangle. YOu need \(tan x = \dfrac{32}{24}\), and then put the number in your calculator to find arctan (32/24)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry I thought x was a line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x is actually the line out side of the circle, any ideas on how to solve it?

OpenStudy (loser66):

oh, so, this time is my apology. hehehe. take @YZY answer
