Find the value of x in the triangle. round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree. show your work. i already know the hypotenuse is 17, but what is the value of x? i'm really confused, any is appreciated!

61.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

Then in your triangle, you have ..

tan(x°) = 15/8

x° = arctan(15/8) ≈ 61.9°

"arctan(...)" can be read as "the angle whose tangent is ..." The calculator function that gives this value is often a "2nd" function, overlaid on the key that gives you the tangent. It may be labeled tan⁻¹.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

step-by-step explanation:

double number line is not a standard concept, so it must have been defined in your textbook. assume top line is numerator.
