Find the value of x to the nearest degree.

A. 35
B. 28
C. 51
D. 55

A

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we are already given the sides adjacent and opposite to ∠x. Therefore, we can use the tangent function. Recall that:

The opposite side is 20 while the adjacent side is 14.

Plug in the numbers. Use a calculator:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

tan theta = opp/ adj

tan x = 20/14

Taking the inverse tan of each side

tan ^-1 tan x = tan ^ -1 (20/14)

x =55.0079798

To the nearest degree

x = 55

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6

answer: 30

step-by-step explanation: its 30 because im a basketball player and stephen curry hits most of his shots so if you put 30 you might make the shot goodluck
