Solve for the length of x

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle. We know this because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree/right angle. Therefore, we can use the right triangle trigonometry ratios.

We are given angle A which measures 37 degrees.

Side BC which measures 48 is opposite angle A and the unknown side, x, is next to or adjacent to angle A.

We should use tangent.

Since we are solving for x, we must isolate the variable. First, cross multiply. Multiply the first numerator and the second denominator, then the first denominator and second numerator.

x is being multiplied by the tangent of 37. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides by the tangent of 37.

Even though it is not specified, let's round to the nearest tenths place. The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7.

The unknown side is approximately 63.7 units long.
