5.0 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle

tan theta = opp side/ adjacent side

tan 50 = x / 4.2

4.2 tan 50 = x

5.005365089 =x

Rounding to the nearest tent

5.0 =x

here you hope this .

step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = √(15² + 8²)

=  √(225 +64)

=  √(289) = 17

sin(x) = cos(y) = 8/17

they are identical so long as you are doing the sine of one angle and the cosine of the only other angle that isn't the right angle.
