Sagot :

Answer:

24.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Use trigonometric ratios:

1) Set your calculator to degrees.

2) Since 15 degrees is given, use it in the tangent ratio, opposite over adjacent, which, in this case, is (x / 90)

3) Set up the equation:

        [tex]tan(15) = \frac{x}{90}[/tex]

4) Multiply by 90 to isolate x:

        [tex]90(tan(15)) = x[/tex]

5) Solve with a calculator to get

        x ≈ 24.1
