Green and red what is the ratio of green stars to red stars? a) 1 : 2 b) 2 : 3 c)

Length of x is 98.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Use the trigonometric ratio tan 27° to find the common side of both the right angled triangles.

tan 27° = opposite side/adjacent side = opposite side/9

∴ Opposite side = 9 tan 27° = 9 × - 3.27 = -29.46 m

Step 2:

Use this side and trigonometric ratio cosine to find the value of x.

cos 49° = adjacent side/x = -29.46/x

∴ x = -29.46/cos 49° = -29.46/0.30

     = 98.2 m (negative value neglected)
