Answer:

x = 62.96°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached figure,

Base, b = 10 ft

Hypotenuse, H = 22 ft

We need to find the value of x. We can use trigonometry to find it.

We know that,

[tex]\cos\theta=\dfrac{B}{H}[/tex]

Putting all the values,

[tex]\cos x=\dfrac{10}{22}\\\\x=62.96^{\circ}[/tex]

So, the value of x is 62.96°.
