Find the missing side. Round to the nearest tenth.
52°
27

Answer:
x = 16.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Use Cos
Cos 52 = x / 27
Cos of 52 is 0.61566
0.61566 = x / 27
Multiply 27 on both sides
16.622 = x
Round to the nearest tenth
16.622 = 16.6
[tex]\frac{ \cos(52) }{1} = \frac{x}{27} [/tex]
Cross multiply!
[tex]x = 27 \cos(52) [/tex]
Determine by using a calculator!
Answer: x is approximately 16.6
