Answer:
8.73
Step-by-step explanation:
Given right angle triangle have adjacent leg as 24.
Now finding the length of opposite leg of triangle.
Using the tangent rule to find the value of x
We know, [tex]tan\theta= \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}[/tex]
[tex]Tan\ 20= \frac{x}{24}[/tex]
Using the value of tan 20 degree
⇒ [tex]0.3639= \frac{x}{24}[/tex]
Multiplying both side by 24
⇒[tex]0.3639\times 24= x[/tex]
∴[tex]x= 8.73[/tex]
Hence, the value of x is 8.73.
