X = 60 degrees.
A triangle is 180 degrees one side is 30 degrees, and another is 90(right angle)
180 - 30 - 90 = 60
The question asks:
"Mark Atilius was expecting news from his friends with whom he agreed to reveal the great secret pyramids and spent his time at a nearby inn when he caught the attention of the Egyptian sitting beside him. He was even more surprised when he talked to him.
- You're Mark Atilius, are not you? she smiled - My name is Nefertari and I have a message for you from my grandmother. You should go right away if you want to get Pharaoh's belt you've been looking for all this time.
And he passed on the parchment he had just read.
<span> AA3 + 2 = AAA
CC6 + 6 = CBB
(AB | C) -> S57 -> E73-> S47-> E57-> S43-> W26-> S18->? </span>
Task: Find out the coordinates where Mark should come.<span> "
First, you need to solve for the position from which Mark starts.
You know:
</span><span>AA3 + 2 = AAA
Since 3 + 2 = 5,
553 + 2 = 555
Therefore A = 5.
Similarly:
</span><span>CC6 + 6 = CBB
Since 6+6 = 12, B = 2.
In order from the middle digit to be 2, the original one must have been 1.
Therefore B = 2 and C = 1
Hence, the starting position is: (AB, C) = (52, 1)
The following line gives you how many steps and in what direction Mark should go: S = south (negative vertical motion), N = north (positive vertical motion), E = east (positive horizontal motion), W = west (negative horizontal motion).
(52, 1)
-> S57 -> (52, -56)</span>
-> E73 -> (125, -56)
-> S47 -> (125, -103)
-> E57 -> (182, -103)
-> S43 -> (182, -146)
-> W26 -> (156, -146)
-> S18 -> (156, -164)
Hence, the coordinates that Mark should reach are (156, -164)
Solutions just means the amount of times the lines intersect, so there are no solutions. Since the lines are parallel, they’re going the exact same direction forever and ever, never intersecting. Hope this helps!
Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem. So, 81+x^2=1681. ( Pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2). x^2=1600. x=40.
