In the diagram, |QR| = 10m, |SR| = 8m o, o and |PS| = x, Find x
  • A.
    1.32m
  • B.
    6.32m
  • C.
    9.32m
  • D.
    17.32
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

In right angled (bigtriangleup)QPR
tan 30o = (frac{10}{x + 8})
(x + 8) tan 30 = 10
x + 8 = (frac{10}{0.5773})
x +8 = 17.3
x = 17.3 – 8
x = 9.32
