Okay first off. You want to combine like terms.

2.75-1.5=1.25j
2.25+3=5.25

Now you just fit those two answers into the final answer and you have:

1.25j+5.25.

Angle ABC measures 140°. Angle DBC bisects ∠ABC. Angle EBC bisects ∠DBC. What is the measure of ∠EBC?

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$\angle{EBC}=35\textdegree$

An angle bisector divides the angle measure into two equal parts. In triangle ABC, B is the point at which the angle lies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Picture segment BD drawn from point B of tri.ABC where it connects to segment AC, creating point D. Now picture E drawn on the newly created segment DC where it connects to point B and down to point C. Here's a drawing to better show this:

It's bisecting the bisected angle ABC. So, 140/2 = 70, and 70/2 = 35.

Two cargo ships spot a signal fire on a small island. The captains know they are 140 feet

Irina18 [472]

The distance from Ship B to the signal fire at point C is $405.4 \mathrm{ft}$

Explanation:

It is given that two ships A and B are at a distance 140 ft from each other.

The angle formed by ship A is 82º and the angle formed by ship B is 78º.

To determine the distance from ship B to the signal fire at point C, we need to know the another angle.

Hence, we have,

$\begin{aligned}\angle A+\angle B+\angle C &=180^{\circ} \\82^{\circ}+78^{\circ}+\angle C &=180^{\circ} \\160^{\circ}+\angle C &=180^{\circ} \\\angle C &=20^{\circ}\end{aligned}$

Now, we shall solve the problem using the law of sines,

$\frac{\sin A}{a}=\frac{\sin C}{c}$

Substituting the values, we have,

$\frac{\sin 82^{\circ}}{a}=\frac{\sin 20^{\circ}}{140}$

$\frac{0.9903}{a}=\frac{0.3420}{140}$

Simplifying, we get,

$a=\frac{0.9903 \times 140}{0.3420}$

$a=405.4$

Thus, the distance from Ship B to the signal fire at point C is $405.4 \mathrm{ft}$

In the diagram, how many angles are alternate exterior angles with angle 5?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Angle 11 is the alternate exterior of angle 5 meaning there is only 1 angle that is alternate of angle 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

An exterior angle is an angle outside of the shape (hence ex meaning out). However, an ALTERNATE angle is an angle opposite of a transversal line of another angle. The angles on the same transversal line of 5 are 8, 7, 9, 10, 12, and 11. However, we are looking for ALTERNATE EXTERIOR angles not just exterior. 8, 7, 9, 10, and 12 are just exterior which leaves angle 11 as alternate exterior. Angle 11 is the alternate exterior of angle 5 meaning there is only 1 angle that is alternate of angle 5.
