Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that angle CPB = 180 deg - 115 deg = 65 degrees and that triangles CPB and ABC are isosceles so that angle ABC = angle ACB = 65 degrees. Finally, we calculate the measure of angle ACP:

angle ACP = angle ACB - angle PCB = 65 deg - 180 deg - 2(65 deg)) = 15 degrees.

1. Angles ADC and CDB are supplementary, thus

m∠ADC+m∠CDB=180°.

Since m∠ADC=115°, you have that m∠CDB=180°-115°=65°.

2. Triangle BCD is isosceles triangle, because it has two congruent sides CB and CD. The base of this triangle is segment BD. Angles that are adjacent to the base of isosceles triangle are congruent, then

m∠CDB=m∠CBD=65°.

The sum of the measures of interior angles of triangle is 180°, therefore,

m∠CDB+m∠CBD+m∠BCD=180° and

m∠BCD=180°-65°-65°=50°.

3. Triangle ABC is isosceles, with base BC. Then

m∠ABC=m∠ACB.

From the previous you have that m∠ABC=65° (angle ABC is exactly angle CBD). So

m∠ACB=65°.

4. Angles BCD and DCA together form angle ACB. This gives you

m∠ACB=m∠ACD+m∠BCD,

m∠ACD=65°-50°=15°.

Answer: 15°.

I=k/d^2

4=k/d^2 and 1=k/64  so if we divide the first by the second we get:

4/1=(k/d^2)/(k/64)

4=(k/d^2)*(64/k)

4=64/d^2

d^2=64/4

d^2=16

d=4 meters

Identify which equations have one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solution.
notsponge [240]
First one= x=5
second one= x=1/30 or 0.03 or 30^-1
third one= All real numbers or R
fourth one= No solution
Fifth one= All real numbers or R
Sixth one= p=-10/3 or -3 1/3 or -3.3

R is just the symbol for all real numbers. Also know as infinitely many solutions.

Hope this helps ! :) have a good day! Make sure you eat.

Two cars travel along a highway at the same speed.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

30 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>speed = distance/ time </em>

speed of car A

= 20/ 12 km/ min

= 5/ 3 km/ min

also, speed of car A = speed of car B

speed of car B = 5/ 3 km/ min = 50km / time taken (in mins)

\frac{5}{3}  =  \frac{50}{t}

5t  = 150

t = 30

=> t = 30 mins
