La distancia entre el barco y la base del acantilado es 291.61 metros.

<h3>¿Como calcular la distancia?</h3>

Podemos pensar en esta situacion como en un triangulo rectangulo. Uno de los catetos mide 687 metros, que es la altura del acantilado.

Y conocemos el angulo al que ese cateto es adjacente, que mide 23 grados.

La distancia entre la base del acantilado y el barco será el otro cateto del triangulo rectangulo.

Entonces podemos usar la relación:

tan(a) = (cateto opuesto)/(cateto adjacente)

Reemplazando lo que sabemos:

tan(23°) = D/687m

tan(23°)*687m = D = 291.61m

La distancia entre el barco y la base del acantilado es 291.61 metros.

150 because 6 times 5 is 30 then you multiply whats inside the square root thing so you'd get 25, 25 is a perfect square which simplifies to 5 then 5 times 30 is 150.

What is the value of x
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Triangle Angel Bisector Theorem


AB             2x-1

----------= --------------

AC               3x

9              2x-1

----------= --------------

15               3x


Using cross products

3x*9 = 15*(2x-1)

Distribute

27x = 30x-15

Subtract 30x from each side

27x-30x = 30x-30x-15

-3x = -15

Divide by -3

-3x/-3 =-15/-3

x =5
