Question

Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth

A. 13.2
B. 7.2
C. 32.0
D. 0.03

Answer 1

Answer: C 32.0

Explanation:

Answer 2

B.) 7.2

Explanation:

Use the sine ratio,
`sine=(opposite)/(hypotenuse)` , because we know the value of the hypotenuse and need to know the value opposite the given angle, 28°. Insert the values:

`sin28=(x)/(15)`

Solve for x. Multiply both sides by 15 to isolate x:

`15*(sin28)=15*((x)/(15))\\\\15*sin28=x\\\\x=15*sin28`

Enter value into calculator:

`x=7.042...`

Round to the nearest tenth:

`x=7.0`

Option B is closest to the value of x.

Finito.
