Answer:

The answer is

x = 38.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is a right angled triangle we can use trigonometric ratios to find the value of x

To find the value of x we use tan

[tex] \tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

From the question

the opposite is 12

the adjacent is 15

We have

[tex] \tan(x) = \frac{12}{15} \\ x = \tan^{ - 1} ( \frac{12}{15} ) \\ x = 38.659808[/tex]

We have the final answer as

x = 38.7°

Hope this helps you
