Answer:
x ≈ 74.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle, that is
tan22° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{30}{x}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by x )
x × tan22° = 30 ( divide both sides by tan22° )
x = [tex]\frac{30}{tan22}[/tex] ≈ 74.3 ( to the nearest tenth )
