Answer:

[tex]\boxed{a.\:\:\:60\degree}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:


The given trigonometric equation is


[tex]5\tan(x)=5\sqrt{3}[/tex] for [tex]0\degree \le x\le 180\degree[/tex].


We divide through by 5 to get;


[tex]\tan(x)=\sqrt{3}[/tex]


We take the inverse tangent of both sides to obtain;


[tex]x=tan^{-1}(\sqrt{3})[/tex]


[tex]x=60\degree[/tex]


Since the tangent ratio is positive, it means [tex]x[/tex] could also be in the 3rd quadrant. But this is outside the given range.


Therefore the correct answer is A
