Answer:
The question is asking to solve a problem that'll "add up", or in other words, makes sense; through the use of Trigonometric functions. The leaning ladder is the hypotenuse of 17ft, adjacent to that is a wall that measures 16.5ft above the ground. The angle both sides make must be <=70°. The function here is Opposite over Hypotenuse i.e 16.5/17 . We use the inverse operation of Sin which is Sin^(-1) to find if the angle is < or = to 70°. Using a calculator, we find the angle to be 76.06°, which is > more than, 70°.
Thus, the ladder will not be safe for its height and therefore won't make sense.

Answer:
b=20
c=160
Step-by-step explanation:
b has the same measurement as the other angle that is across from it. c is 160 because the line that c is on is a straight line so it is 180 degrees, you subtract the other angle on the line,20, then you get the answer.
Y=3/2x-1.5 would be the equation
