Question

Find the measure of the angle indicated (x). Round to the nearest tenth. Show your work to support your answer.

Answer 1

• tanØ=Perpendicular/Base
• tanØ=4/13
• Ø=tan^{-1}(4/13)
• Ø=17.1°

Answer 2

solution:

relation between perpendicular and base is given by tan angle

so

`\tan(ø)`=perpendicular/base=4/13

ø=tan-¹ (4/13)=17.10°

angle indicated =ø=17.10°
