I could use some help im really struggling!!

Use tangent in trigonometry to find x. Tangent is opposite/adjacent, so tan27 (aka tangent of angle measuring 27 degrees) =  x (opposite side from 27)/ 9.7 (the side directly adjacent to the angle) for an equation that needs to be solved:

tan27= x/9.7

To solve this, we just need to isolate the x by multiplying both sides by the denominator, 9.7.

This will get rid of the 9.7 how 1/2 times 2 equals 1.

That brings us to 9.7tan27 = x

Plug that (9.7tan27) into your calculator for a final answer of 4.9 (rounded to nearest tenth)

hi there, i would be interested to you with your test, may you add the questions and answer options.
