## anonymous one year ago Challenge! Ready? Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth. The diagram is not drawn to scale. http://assets.openstudy.com/updates/attachments/55b1c6b8e4b04559507ab75a-lollygirl217-1437714131680-as.jpg

1. Nnesha

$\rm sin \rm \theta = \frac{ opposite }{ hypotenuse }~~~~ \cos \theta = \frac{ adjacent }{ hypotenuse } ~~\tan \theta = \frac{ opposite }{ adjacent }$

2. Nnesha

|dw:1437741860889:dw| you have to use cos function to find x $\huge\rm cos 24 = \frac{ 11 }{ x }$ solve for x remember it's 24 degree

3. Nnesha

corrections $\huge\rm cos (24) =\frac{ 11 }{ x }$ solve for x

4. anonymous

Your doing good so far. My internet shut off....sorry

5. Nnesha

let me know what you get

6. anonymous

That would ruin the whole point of the challenge....

7. AaronAndyson

26.2

I think aaron might have beaten you to it.

11. anonymous

But she/he is wrong.

12. Nnesha

oh

13. anonymous

oh?

14. anonymous

cos24=11/x x=11/cos24 x~12

15. AaronAndyson

He

16. anonymous

Mk.

17. AaronAndyson

Now I get 4.47

18. anonymous

Don't know what you are doing honey.

19. anonymous

But the formula was posted.

20. anonymous

Nnesha what do you say?

21. anonymous

You could win.

22. Nnesha

yayyay i won

23. Nnesha

oh i was afk

24. anonymous

Do you say the answer is ~12?

25. Nnesha

playing game and i won

26. Nnesha

no i was playing game

27. anonymous

lol

28. AaronAndyson

XD

29. anonymous

Who wants to try this game?

30. Nnesha

this is not a challenging question girl not at all lol

31. anonymous

Well it can be for some people.

32. Nnesha

and yes

33. anonymous

Who will get it then?

34. anonymous

35. Nnesha

i gave you the explanation formula process

36. anonymous

37. Nnesha

we are not allowed to give answers :=)

38. Nnesha

if the formula is right then you will get the same answer :=)

39. Nnesha

40. anonymous

Well I am making challenges so I guess it's just not going to work out between us.

41. anonymous

You seemed so smart too.

42. Nnesha

thanks for the compliment

43. Nnesha

$$\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}$$ @Nnesha $\huge\rm cos (24) =\frac{ 11 }{ x }$ solve for x $$\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}$$ equal answer that you got

44. anonymous

And what do you get? X~12

45. hybrik

Do cosine 24 on calculator, then multiply both sides by X, then dive both sides by cosine 24 to find x

46. Nnesha

if i know how to write it in equation then i obviously know the answer

47. Nnesha

yes right make sure your calculator is on degree

48. hybrik

49. anonymous

And what do you get? x~12

50. anonymous

Right nnesha?

51. anonymous

52. Nnesha

53. anonymous

You agreed on it? I must have missed it.

54. Nnesha

use calculator for cos 24 degree and then cross multiply use calculator to divide 11/.9135 =answer

55. Nnesha

yes you got it right .-.

56. anonymous

As well as you miss.

57. Nnesha

ah what ?

58. Nnesha

what grade are you in ? :=)

59. anonymous

I am not in school.

60. anonymous

Guess my age!~~

61. Nnesha

21

62. Nnesha

lol jk

63. Nnesha

15 or 16 :=)

64. anonymous

Aw. Guess again.

65. anonymous

Higher than those two miss.
