Answer:
13.3650978628
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle A=180-(Angle B+C)=180-117=63
Here,
b=BC, p=AC & AB=12
Using the relation of cos,
cosx=b/h
cos27=BC/15
15cos27=BC
Using a calculator,
BC=13.3650978628
Answer:
slope m = (5+1)/(-6+8) = 6/2 =3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem
step 1
In the right triangle ACD
Find the length side AC
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

substitute the given values



simplify

step 2
In the right triangle ACD
Find the cosine of angle CAD

substitute the given values

----> equation A
step 3
In the right triangle ABC
Find the cosine of angle BAC

substitute the given values
----> equation B
step 4
Find the value of x
In this problem
----> is the same angle
so
equate equation A and equation B
solve for x
Multiply in cross


step 5
Find the length of BC
In the right triangle BCD
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

substitute the given values



simplify

X=3; you can set up a proportion using the slope equation. So (y[sub2]-y[sub1])/(x[sub2]-x[sub1])=2/1 then plug in the values and simplify. Then cross multiply and solve for x. Rest of work shown in the picture
