Question

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary.

Answer 1

`\tan(x )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{5.6}}{\underset{adjacent}{9.7}} \implies \tan^(-1)(~~\tan( x )~~) \approx \tan^(-1)\left( 0.58 \right) \\\\\\ x \approx\tan^(-1)\left( 0.58 \right)\implies x \approx 30.0^o`

Answer 2

Answer: 29.9986-----30.0 degrees

Explanation:

x =
`tan^-^1(5.6/9.7)\\\\toa`
