Answer:
x ≈ 66.73
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan27° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{KL}{JK}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{34}{x}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by x )
x × tan27° = 34 ( divide both sides by tan27° )
x = [tex]\frac{34}{tan27}[/tex] ≈ 66.73 ( to 2 dec. places )
