Answer:
m = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5m + 30 = 60 ( subtract 30 from both sides )
5m = 30 ( divide both sides by 5 )
m = 6
I believe it is 105 since if added together they make a linear pair(I believe) so, 180-75 equals 105.
Answer: C. 17.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached photo shows the triangle ABC formed by the ladder and the wall. It is a right angle triangle because one of its angles is 90 degrees. The ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle. To determine the height of the wall, we would find BC by applying Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent^2
18^2 + 4.5^2 + BC^2
BC^2 = 324 - 20.25 = 303.75
BC = √303.75 = 17.5 feet.
Let's create this right triangle. We will call it triangle ABC with angle B as the right angle, angle A being the larger of the angles A and C. If the ratio is 5:4, then it is A:C. 5+4 = 9. The measure of the right angle, angle ABC = 90, and 90 divided by 9 is 10. So angle A is 5 * 10 which is 50 degrees, and angle C is 4 * 10 which is 40 degrees. The smallest angle, angle C, is 40 degrees.
