These calculations are based on the drawing of the file enclosed.
There are three right triangles.
From the big right triangle:
a^2 + b^2 = 25^2
From the small right triangle on the left side:
(25-x)^2 + 10^2 = a^2
From the small right triangle on the right side
x^2 +10^2 = b^2
=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = a^2 + b^2
=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = 25^2
=> 25^2 - 50x + x^2 + 10^2 + 10^2 = 25^2
=> x^2 -50x + 100 =0
Use the quadratic formular to find the roots:
x = 2.1 and x = 47.9
Distance from back: 25 - 2.1 = 22.9 ft
Answer: 22.9 ft
Answer: x=3
should be the correct answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary angles add up to 180
∠1 + 50 = 180
∠1 = 180 - 50
∠1 = 130
∠3 +50 = 180 {Supplementary}
∠3 = 180 - 50
∠3 =130
⇒∠1 = ∠3 = 130
To approximate the distance of points with three dimension, make use of the equation,
d = sqrt ((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 +(z2 - z1)^2)
Substituting all the data from the points given,
<span>d = sqrt ((2 - -2)^2 + (-7 - 3)^2 +(4 - -5)^2) = sqrt 197
</span>
Thus, the distance from the points is approximately 14.04 and that is letter D.
