Huh? I assume you are just showing an example, since none of the numbers matches. In fact, the distance x is found via
x/(2.3-1.2) = cot 39.8°
A bullet is found embedded in the wall of a room 2.3 m above the floor. The bullet entered the wall going upward at an angle of 39.8°. How far from the wall was the bullet fired if the gun was held 1.2 m above the floor?
