Answer:

The answer is C on Edge 2020

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x will be 48.19°. Then the measure of angle LJK will be 41.81°.

What is a right-angle triangle?

It's a form of a triangle with one 90-degree angle that follows Pythagoras' theorem and can be solved using the trigonometry function.

Triangle LJK is shown.

Angle ∠JLK is a right angle.

The length of the hypotenuse is 15 inches, and the length of the side adjacent to the right angle is 10 inches.

The angle between the 2 sides is x.

Then the measure of the angle x will be given by cosine of x.

cos x = 10 / 15

cos x = 0.667

      x = 48.19°

The value of x will be 48.19°.

We know that the sum of the angle of triangle is 180°.

Then the measure of angle LJK will be

∠LJK + 90° + 48.19° = 180°

                       ∠LJK = 41.81°
