do you know any other values? like even two of the sides?

someone said that x = 35, but I dont know how to prove it

tacit mango
#

oh wait

#

you know an angle

#

it is 35

so what happens is

#

if you draw a line thats horizontal from R and another one from Q you get a triangle

#

which is the same as the big triangle

#

which. means that the x is basically the 35 degree on the big triangle, the triangle's just scaled down

#

angle is invariant so it doesn't matter if you scale it

#

yes

#

uhhh so imagine youre tilting it so the bottom diagonal hits the horizontal line

#

and you shrink it

sry i don't have my ipad on me rn

steel lava
#

oh ok

tacit mango
#

search up similar triangles on google

that's the only way you can solve it unless you know the length of one side
