Answer:
23 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use basic trigonometric equations to solve for the angle x because we are given a right triangle.
I will use the sin x = opposite / hypotenuse
sin x = 5 / 13
x = sin^-1 (5 / 13)
x = 22.61986 degrees
The question requires us to round to the nearest degree which is 23.
Other alternative methods you can use include the tangent and cosine functions or the law of cosines.
