Hey in melo30's twin .the answer is D.8
The answer to this is 65.
Remember that the angles opposite of each other equal to 180. So a+c=180 and b+d=180.
First, we solve for x. Since we know that b and d equal to 180, we subtract 148 from 180.
180-148=32. x=32.
Then we plug that in the expression for angle a.
2x+1 becomes 2(32)+1
2*32=64
64+1=65.
a=65
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall: SOHCAHTOA
Reference angle = θ
Side Adjacent to θ = 8
Hypotenuse = 15
Therefore, we would apply CAH since we know the hypotenuse and the adjacent length.
Thus:
Cos θ = Adj/Hyp = 8/15
Cos θ = 0.5333
θ = Cos^{-1}(0.5333)
θ = 57.7713051°
θ = 57.8° (to nearest tenth)
