M<J = m<N ( alternate angles)
m<K = m<M ( alternate angles)
so the third angles must also be equal ( total 180 degrees in each triangle)
Therefor the triangles are similar
(yX3)+1 because product means multipy
Here is a reference to the Inscribed Quadrilateral Conjecture it says that opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplemental.
Explanation:
The conjecture, #angleA and angleC# allows us to write the following equation:
#angleA + angleC=180^@#
Substitute the equivalent expressions in terms of x:
#x+2+ x-2 = 180^@#
#2x = 180^@#
#x = 90^@#
From this we can compute the measures of all of the angles.
#angleA=92^@#
#angleB=100^@#
#angleC=88^@#
<span>#angleD= 80^@#</span>
Answer:
Shortest distance from the mountain is 3.17 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached,
Let a mountain is located at point A.
Angle between the mountain and point B (∠B) = 53°
Angle between the mountain and point C (∠C) = 78°
Distance between these points = 3 miles
Since, m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
m∠A + 53° + 78° = 180°
m∠A = 180°- 131° = 49°
By applying sine rule in triangle ABC,
AC = 
AC = 3.17 miles
AB = 
AB = 3.89 miles
Therefore, shortest distance from the mountain is 3.17 miles.
6 hours and 13 minutes
because when you add it that is what you get
