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

Find the measure of c.
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

140°

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle has a central angle of 80. This means that the arc it intercepts is also 80°. Therefore, the rest of the circle not intercepted by the arc is 360-80=280°

Remember that inscribed angles have one-half of the arc-length it intercepts. We can see that Angle C intercepts the entire circle except for the arc intercepted by Angle O. Therefore, the arc intercepted by Angle C is 280°. This means that Angle C is the half of 280, or 140°.

What is the value of x in the following equation? 4(x-1) = 2(x +1)
Alla [95]
Start by multiplying to get rid of parentheses. Then use addition/subtraction to isolate x on one side of the equation. Finally, use division to determine the value of x.

Is there an error in this statement If x2 = 25, then x = 5.
katen-ka-za [31]
Yes there is an error in this statement.

because x^2 = 25 
so x = 5...this is one condition

Another condition is x = -5
(-5)^2 = 25 (this is also true)
