Question

What is the value of X

Answer 1

x = 4
`√(3)`

Explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

sin60° =
`(√(3) )/(2)` , then

sin60° =
`(opposite)/(hypotenuse)` =
`(x)/(8)` =
`(√(3) )/(2)` ( cross- multiply )

2x = 8
`√(3)` ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4
`√(3)`
