Given that y= 12 cm and θ= 24 °, work out x rounded to 1 DP.
(not drawn to scale.)

Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf x = 5.3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 12 cm
θ = 24°
Using trigonometric ratio, tan.
[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{tan \theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} }\\\\tan \ 24 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\0.445 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\Multiply \ 12 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\0.445 \times 12 = x\\\\5.3 = x\\\\x = 5.3\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]
