Given a right angle triangle

We need to find the measure of the angle x

The opposite side to the angle x = 19

the adjacent side to the angle x = 15

We will find x using the tan function as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan x=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\ \\ \tan x=\frac{19}{15} \\ \\ x=\tan ^{-1}\frac{19}{15}\approx51.7098^{} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Round the answer to the nearest tenth

so, the answer will be x = 51.7
