Question

Challenge! Ready? Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth. The diagram is not drawn to scale.

Answer 1

\[\rm sin \rm \theta = \frac{ opposite }{ hypotenuse }~~~~ \cos \theta = \frac{ adjacent }{ hypotenuse } ~~\tan \theta = \frac{ opposite }{ adjacent }\]

you need opposite side of the given angle
and given side is adjacent so apply tan function to find value of x

Answer 2

\[\huge\rm tan(35 ) = \frac{ \rm opposite }{ adjacent }\]
opposite = x
adjacent = 12
substitute and then sovle for x

Answer 3

solve*

Answer 4

Your doing good so far.

Answer 5

thanks. let me know what you get for x

Answer 6

You are the one I am challenging. I already know the answer.

Answer 7

alright so what's the answer

Answer 8

x = 12 tan 35 =

Answer 9

find to 2 decimal then round to 1 decimal

Answer 10

12*.7002= 8.4

Answer 11

x = 8.4

Answer 12

Nice job!
