Answer:

x=7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan=O/A

=x/6

Tan50=x/6

×6 on both sides

6× Tan50=7.2

Answer:

DE ≈ 7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan50° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{DE}{EF}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{DE}{6}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 6 )

6 × tan50° = DE , then

DE ≈ 7.2 ( to the nearest tenth )
