Answer:
2. x ≈ 17.74
3. x ≈ 16.64
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent function relates an angle to the opposite and adjacent sides of a right triangle:
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
Here, we're looking for the measure of the side opposite the angle, so we can rearrange this relation to ...
Opposite = Adjacent×Tan
__
2. x = 32×tan(29°) ≈ 17.74
3. x = 13×tan(52°) ≈ 16.64
_____
Hopefully, we've given enough decimal places so that you can round to the precision you need.
