To calculate:
The value of x :

Answer to Problem 15PPS
The value of x is 22.8 .
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Concept used:
Law of Sines:
a=bsinαsinβ
Calculation:
Since, the given two
Law of Sines:
a=bsinαsinβ ...(1)
Put the values in equation (1):
sin110x=sin2711
Apply the property of cross products:
x⋅sin27=11⋅sin110
Divide both the sides by sin27 :
x=11sin110sin27x≈22.8
The value of x is 22.8 .
