How do i find the missing side of this triangle? any help will be greatly appreciated

as triangle is a right angle triangle .

you can apply trigonometric ratios .

by tan theta = perpendicular / base

tan 55° = 12/x

x = 12/ tan 55°

put the value of tan 55 ° here .

as I don't know the value of tan 55° as it was not present in my syallabus still now .

hope you will get the idea .

hope this will be helpful to you.

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!
