CD = x
BC = y
AB = 85
BD = BC+CD = y+x

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(28) = BC/AB
tan(28) = y/85
85*tan(28) = y
y = 85*tan(28)
y = 45.1953016912257

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(31) = BD/AB
tan(31) = (y+x)/85
tan(31) = (45.1953016912257+x)/85
85*tan(31) = 45.1953016912257+x
51.0731526173427 = 45.1953016912257+x
51.0731526173427-45.1953016912257 = 45.1953016912257+x-45.1953016912257
5.877850926117 = x
x = 5.877850926117

So CD is roughly 5.877850926117 meters

What is the slope?

V125BC [204]

Answer:

$2$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this I would find two friendly points like (60,10) and (70,30). Now we will plug in for the slope-intercept formula $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ .

So...

$y_2=30\\y_1=10\\x_2=70\\x_1=60$

Now we plug in and solve...

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\m=\frac{30-10}{70-60}\\m=\frac{20}{10}\\m=\frac{2}{1}=2$

So the slope will be 2.

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

42°

Step-by-step explanation:

AD is a line

AEC and DEC are both 90°

AEB and CEB make up 90°

AEB+CEB=AEC substitute

AEB+48=90 Next use Subtraction property of equality

AEB=42

Hope this helps, if so please give me brainliest, it helps a lot. :)

Have a good day!

Please help me with this math problem.

Hello!

Tangent lines have only one point on the circle, meaning they form straight angles with the edge of the circle. The radius goes from the center of the circle to the point where the tangent line is on circle, creating a right angle.

Answer:
90°

In the 2009 to 2010 school year in country a there were 127,004 in students from country B. This number is 24% more than the num

adoni [48]

If x represents the number of students from country C.

then 122% of x = 116,000

122/100 * x = 116000

Transposing the formula for x;

therefore x = 116000 * 100/122 = 95,082 students
