Determine The Value Of X Using A Trigonometric Ratio class=

Sagot :

Answer:

 B. 8.56

Explanation:

Given:

  • angle = 50°
  • adjacent = 5.5
  • hypotenuse = x

So using cosine rule:

[tex]\sf cos(x) = \dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf cos(50) = \dfrac{5.5}{x}[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf x= \dfrac{5.5}{cos(50) }[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf x= 8.56[/tex]
