OK we have a right angle A and we're interested in angle B.

Relative to B, AB=7 is the adjacent side and AC=17 is the opposite side so we have:

$\tan B = \dfrac{\textrm{opp}}{\textrm{adj}} = \dfrac{17}{7}$

$B = \arctan \frac{17}{7} \approx 67.62 ^\circ$

Answer: 68

What is the area of the hexagon? 60 m 2 80 m 2 100 m 2 120 m 2

larisa86 [58]

We can think of this hexagon as two trapezoids with the same area. Each has height 5 and bases 6 and 10.

$A = 2 \left(\frac 1 2 (b_1 + b_2) h \right) = h(b_1 + b_2)$

$A = 5(6 + 10) = 80$

Answer: 80 square meters, second choice

Ashton designs movie sets. For one scene, he has to hang a banner across an archway that takes the shape of a parabola modeled b

Crazy boy [7]

No question is asked so I'm not sure what you are looking for but below I calculated the point where the two equations intersect:
y - x = 4 → y = x + 4
y = - x² + 6x
x + 4 = - x² + 6x
x² - 5x + 4 = 0
(x - 4)(x - 1) = 0
x = 4, x = 1

when x = 4, then y = x + 4 = 4 + 4 = 8 → (4,8)
when x = 1, then y = x + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5 → (1,5)

The line and parabola intersect at two points: (4,8) and (1,5)
