Answer:
x = 33.8°
Step-by-step explanation:
The resulting diagram we have is a right triangle. To find x, apply trigonometric function.
Reference angle = x
Opposite = 116
Adjacent = 173
Apply TOA:
Tan x = Opp/Adj
[tex] tan (x) = \frac{116}{173} [/tex]
[tex] x = tan^{-1}(\frac{116}{173}) [/tex]
[tex] x = tan^{-1}(\frac{116}{173}) [/tex]
x = 33.8° (nearest tenth)
