Answer:
x = 9.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see attached photo for diagram.
We'll begin by calculating the value of y. This can be obtained as follow:
Angle θ = 45
Opposite = 6
Hypothenus = y
Sine θ = Opposite /Hypothenus
Sine 45 = 6/y
0.7071 = 6/y
Cross multiply
y × 0.7071 = 6
Divide both side by 0.7071
y = 6 / 0.7071
y = 8.5
Finally, we shall determine the value of x. This can be obtained as follow:
Angle θ = 60
Opposite = 8.5
Hypothenus = x
Sine θ = Opposite /Hypothenus
Sine 60 = 8.5 / x
Cross multiply
x Sine 60 = 8.5
Divide both side by sine 60
x = 8.5 / sine 60
x = 8.5 / 0.8660
x = 9.8
