<h3>Answer: 5.5 which is choice B</h3>
Have a look at the diagram I posted below. I marked on your image to add in another angle. This angle is also 20 degrees because of congruent alternate interior angles (horizontal lines are parallel). This angle I add in is the reference angle of the triangle
opposite the reference angle is the vertical side x
adjacent to the reference angle is the horizontal side 15
We'll use the tangent rule. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(20) = x/15
15*tan(20) = x <<-- multiply both sides by 15
x = 15*tan(20)
x = 5.45955 <<--- use calculator; this is approximate
x = 5.5 <<--- round to one decimal place
Answer:
However, that's the length of "c" and you're looking to drag it in. So,o you drag in 10^2+7^2=a^2.
Then, as shown by the first picture attatched, you can drag in the one with "c" and "a" with the five shown.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find "c" the diagonal, as explained, you need to use the theorem twice. You can first use it by finding "a", as you already have "b". To find a, you do 10^2+7^2=a^2, the hypotenuse.
100+49=149.
So, a is root 149.
a^2+b^2=c^2 so
149+25=174
