Answer :

Answer:

x = 13.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the triangle, we can see that the angle lies between the adjacent side and the hypotenuse which indicates that we need to use the cosine identity. Which states that the adjacent would be over the hypotenuse.

cos 37 degrees = 11/x

x cos 37 degrees = 11

x = 11/cos 37 degrees

x = 13.77

round to nearest tenth

x = 13.8
