Answer:
x = 163.5
x = 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall: SOH CAH TOA
For the first triangle:
Reference angle = 73°
Opposite = x
Adjacent = 50
Apply TOA:
Tan 73° = Opp/Adj
Tan 73° = x/50
50*Tan 73° = x
163.542631 = x
x = 163.5 (nearest tenth)
For the first triangle:
Reference angle = 4°
Opposite = x
Adjacent = 17
Apply TOA:
Tan 4° = Opp/Adj
Tan 4° = x/17
17*Tan 4° = x
1.1887558 = x
x = 1.2 (nearest tenth)
