The value of x is 10.

Solution:

Given triangle is a right triangle.

θ = 50°, adjacent side = 6, hypotenuse = x

The value of cos 50° = 0.6

Using trigonometric ratio formulas,

[tex]$\cos \theta=\frac{\text { Adjacent side of } \theta}{\text { Hypotenuse }}[/tex]

[tex]$\cos50^\circ=\frac{6}{x}[/tex]

[tex]$0.6=\frac{6}{x}[/tex]

Do cross multiplication, we get

[tex]x\times 0.6=6[/tex]

Divide by 0.6 on both sides, we get

[tex]$\frac{x\times 0.6}{0.6}=\frac{6}{0.6}[/tex]

x = 10

The value of x is 10.
