Solve cos(49^circ)=6/x

$$\cos ( 49 ^ { \circ } ) = \frac{ 6 }{ x }$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{60000000000000000}{6560590289905073} = 9\frac{954687390854343}{6560590289905073} \approx 9.14551852$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Evaluate trigonometric functions in the problem

$$0.6560590289905073 = \frac{6}{x}$$

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$0.6560590289905073x=6$$

Divide both sides by 0.6560590289905073.

$$x=\frac{6}{0.6560590289905073}$$

Expand \frac{6}{0.6560590289905073} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10000000000000000.

$$x=\frac{60000000000000000}{6560590289905073}$$
