Answer 1

x ≈ 56.7

Explanation:

In the right triangle with hypotenuse 79 use the sine ratio to find x

sinx° =
`(opposite)/(hypotenuse)` =
`(66)/(79)`, hence

x =
`sin^(-1)` (
`(66)/(79)` ) ≈ 56.7

Answer 2

x = 56.7°

Explanation:

Sin (x) = Oppo. / Hypo.

Sin (x) = 66/79

Sin (x) = 0.8354

x = 56.7°
