Consider the contrapositive of the statement you want to prove.
The contrapositive of the logical statement
<em>p</em> ⇒ <em>q</em>
is
¬<em>q</em> ⇒ ¬<em>p</em>
In this case, the contrapositive claims that
"If there are no scalars <em>α</em> and <em>β</em> such that <em>c</em> = <em>α</em><em>a</em> + <em>β</em><em>b</em>, then <em>a₁b₂</em> - <em>a₂b₁</em> = 0."
The first equation is captured by a system of linear equations,
or in matrix form,
If this system has no solution, then the coefficient matrix on the right side must be singular and its determinant would be
and this is what we wanted to prove. QED

Remark
The way this is worded, it sounds like it is a horizontal distance. However by the marking it looks like they want the hypotenuse. Life can be very confusing sometimes.
The angle of the triangle that you need to know is the one on the right. The line of sight line is parallel to the base of the triangle. So the angle on the right is 8 degrees by the Z theorem.
Solution
Sin(8) = 1817 / x Multiply both sides by x
x*sin(8) = 1817 Divide by sin(8)
x = 1817/sin(8)
sin(8) = 0.1392
x = 1817/0.1392
x = 13055.7
Note
Watch how you do this. I would put it into your calculator as
1817
÷
sin(8)
=
If you use the rounded answer I gave for sin(8), you might get it wrong. This is a big distance and you should just use the exact number you get for sin(8).

Answer:
x= 10, corresponding
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding angles are in the same direction from their respective intersections. Here, the angles are both northwest of the point where the lines cross. The angles are corresponding.
__
Corresponding angles are congruent, so we have ...
10x +10 = 110
10x = 100 . . . . . subtract 10
x = 10 . . . . . . . . divide by 10
