Find the value of w and then x. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree.

Answer
w=7.6
x=43.7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for w you can use Sin(x)=[tex]\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}[/tex] which would basically be Sin(50)=[tex]\frac{w}{10}[/tex] then solve. Multiply the ten on both sides so you have 10*Sin(50)=w and your final answer is 7.6
To solve for x you can also use Sin(x)=[tex]\frac{7.6}{11}[/tex] then just use Inverse of Sin^-1
The answer is x=43.7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram contains 2 right angle triangles.
To determine w, we would apply the the Sine trigonometric ratio. It is expressed as
Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse.
Hypotenuse = 10
Opposite side = w
Therefore
Sin 50 = w/10
w = 10Sin50 = 10 × 0.7660
w = 7.66
To determine angle x, we would also apply the sine trigonometric ratio. Therefore
Hypotenuse = 11
Opposite side = 7.66
Sin x = 7.66/11 = 0.6964
x = Sin^-1 (0.6964)
x = 41.1 degrees to the nearest tenth.
