Answer:
x ≈ 101.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan44 = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{98}{x}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by x )
x × tan44° = 98 ( divide both sides by tan44° )
x = [tex]\frac{98}{tan44}[/tex] ≈ 101.5 ( to the nearest tenth )
