Find the value of x. round to the nearest tenth. the diagram is not drawn to scale.

x = 2879.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to use the trigonometric ratio to find the value of x.

We are given 1 side length and we can find the top angle.

Top angle = 90 - 10 = 80 degrees

Cos = Adjustant side /Hypotenuse

Here Adj side = 500 m and Hypotenuse = x

We need to find the value of x

Cos 80 = 500/x

x = 500/cos 80

x = 2879.4 meters

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.

x is variable or an unknown value to find

example:

2x = 5 which means x = 3

circle area = pi * radius^2

if diameter = 10 then radius = 5

circle area = pi * 5^2

circle area = pi * 25

circle area = 78.5398163397 square units
