[tex]x=13.8[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
- Since the triangle is right use the tangent ratio to solve for x
[tex]tan41^o=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}=\frac{12}{x}[/tex]
- Multiply both sides by [tex]x[/tex]
x × [tex]tan41^o=12[/tex] ( divide both sides by [tex]tan41^o[/tex] )
x = ≈ ( nearest tenth )
