Answer:
x = 3.721
Explanation:
Since, the triangle is right triangle, we can use trignometery equations ;
In this case, we need to use tangent equation in perpendicular :
tan θ = opposite side / adjacent side
Where , we've
- opposite side = x
- θ , angle = 28 °
- Adjacent side = 7
tan 28 ° = x / 7
7 × tan 28 ° = 7 × x / 7 ..( Multiply each side by 7 )
7 × tan28° = x
Rewrite
x = 7 tan ×28°
multiply to get
x = 7 × 0.531709432
x = 3.72196602
