Angles 1, 3, and 4 make up a straight line.
Thus, 3x + 90 + 3x - 6 = 180 (angle sum of straight line)
6x - 6 = 90
6x = 96
x = 16
Now angle 1 becomes 3(16) = 48
Angle 1, 2, and 3 also make up a straight line.
Thus, angle 2 + 48 + 90 = 180
angle 2 + 138 = 180
angle 2, therefore, becomes 42. In essence, (A)
If it is 76 feet LOWER than 73 above sea level, then you must do
73-76= -3
So Mudville is 3 feet BELOW sea level.
First you must know that for remarkable angles: cos (0) = 1, cos (π) = - 1, cos (π / 2) = 0, cos (3π / 2) = 0, cos (2π) = 1. Then, by simple substitution in the given formula, you can find the solutions of x. Which for the interval [0, 2π) are: x = π, x = pi divided by two and x = three pi divided by two.Attached solution.
Edit to reflect comments:
3^-1=1/3
4^-1=1/4
Flip the fraction over basically i.e. 4/1---->1/4
(4/7)^3=.1865
6xyz/2xz simplifies to 3y
