Answer:

If CD=h and BC=x, then

h/x = tan24°

h/(x+7600) = tan16°

or,

h = 0.4452x

h = 0.2867x + 2179.2649

0.4452x = 0.2867x + 2179.2649

BC = x = 13750

CD = h = 6121

Line CD passes through points C(3, -5) and D(6, 0). What is the equation off three line CD in standard form?
Alina [70]
Standard form: Ax+By=C
first put in slope-intercept form:
slope = (0+5)/(6-3) = 5/3
pick point D: 0 = 5/3(6)+b -> b= -10
slope-intercept form: y=(5/3)x-10
multiply both sides by 3:
3y=5x-30
put in standard form:
5x-3y=30
