To solve for x using trigonometric ratios, we need to use the tangent function:
tan(32) = x/24
Multiplying both sides by 24, we get:
x = 24 * tan(32)
Using a calculator, we get:
x ≈ 14.8
Therefore, the value of x is approximately 14.8 units (rounded to the nearest tenth) in the given right triangle.
Find the value of x using trigonometric ratios. round to the nearest tenth
