Question

Find x 4.0 58 degrees

Answer 1

The value of x = 4.7

Explanation:

From the figure we can see aright triangle with height = 4.0 and one angle is 58°

Points to remember

Trigonometric ratios

Sin θ = Opposite side/Hypotenuse

To find the value of x

Sin 58 = Opposite side/Hypotenuse

= 4/x

x = 4/Sin (58)

= 4/0.848

= 4.71 ≈ 4.7

Therefore the value of x = 4.7

Answer 2

Answer: 4.7

Explanation:

Use Soh Cah Toa

`sin \theta=(opposite)/(adjacent)\\\\\\sin(58^o)=(4.0)/(x)\\\\\\x=(4.0)/(sin(58^o))\\\\\\x=4.7`
