Answer:
x = 437.3 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle at the top of the triangle = 90° - 29° = 61°
Using the sine ratio in the right triangle
sin61° =  =
 = 
Multiply both sides by 500
500 × sin61° = x, hence
x ≈ 437.3
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
So for eliminating, you only solve for one variable first.
I solved for y, so I multiplied by -4 to eliminate the x.
Then I got y= -1
I then substituted that to one of the equations to get x.
 
        
        
        
Answer:
25 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
c = √a^2 + b^2 = √20^2 + 15^2 = 25ft
