Answer:
x = 11.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of any triangle must add up to 180°. Since we have the expressions for each angle: 5x, 8x, and (2x +9), we can solve for the variable of 'x' by adding the expressions together and setting them equal to 180:
5x + 8x + (2x +9) = 180
Combine like terms: 15x + 9 = 180
Use inverse operations: 15x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9
15x = 171 or x = 11.4
Check: 5(11.4) + 8(11.4) + 2(11.4) + 9 = 57 + 91.2 + 22.8 + 9 = 180
The following answer is B because it shows that it has to multiply the x - axis by the slope (5) to make sure that it can be equat to the y - axis.
y = 5x
y =5(16)
y = 80
(x, y) = (16, 80)
(C,D) is 5 units
(E,F) is 4 units
(A,B) is 6units
(G,H) is 3 units
Answer:
1.7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
R is the midpoint of QS, so RS = 4 feet.
Using sine:
sin 25° = RT / 4
RT = 4 sin 25°
RT ≈ 1.7
