Sine 40 = 5 / hypotenuse
0.64279 = 5 / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 5 / 0.64279
<span><span>hypotenuse = 7.7786
</span>tangent (50) = opp / adj
</span><span>tangent (50) = opposite / 5
1.1918 * 5 =  </span><span>opposite</span>
opposite side = 5.959

If Q, DE=FG. Which must be true? Select all that apply.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

A and E

Step-by-step explanation:

A is already given by the basic fact that DE = FG. this makes the 2 lines automatically also congruent.

but this does not tell us anything about EF.

E and F could be very close together or far apart, and still DE = FG can be true in either case.

and that is why B, C and D could be true, but they are not in all cases true, and therefore these statements are in general false.

Need a little help does anyone’s know how to do this?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

106°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the points B, C and D are colinear, it means that

2x + 40 = 5x + 10

collecting like terms

40 - 10 = 5x - 2x

3x = 30

x = 10

Hence the angle ∠E

= 5(10) + 10

= 60°

∠BCE = X + 4

= 10 + 4

= 14°

Given that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

∠D + 14 + 60 = 180

∠D = 180 - 74

= 106°
