Answer:

11.9

Explanation:

You can use the formula tan(x) = opposite / adjacent

You have that:

the angle, or x, = 50

the adjacent side is 10

the opposite side is x

So plug those things into the equation:

tan(50) = x / 10

tan(50) * 10 = x

now, put this in a calculator

You get: 11.9 (after rounding)
