Answer:

x = 13.2feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right, use the tangent ratio to find the value of x

[tex]tan31^0 = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{BC}{AB} = \frac{x}{22}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 22

[tex]x = 22 \tan 31^0\\\\x = 22 \times 0.601\\\\x = 13.22[/tex]

to the nearest tenth

x = 13.2feet
