Answer:
Angle A is 118°
Step-by-step explanation:
All angles in a circle add up to 180, so this means that all the measurements of the three angles add to 180:
x + 2x + 13 + x - 8 = 180
Clean it up:
3x + x + x + 13 -8
5x -5 = 180
To isolate the 5x, you need to move the +5 over to the other side, making it a negative 5:
5x = 180 - 5
5x = 175
Now divide each side by 5 to get the value of 1x:

x = 35
So angle A is:
3x + 13
3(35) + 13 = 118
<h3>So angle A is 118°</h3>

Answer:
3(x) – 3(9)
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x-9)
Distribute the 3 to each term in the parentheses
3*x -3*9
3x -27

Answer:</h3>
3 ft
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The statue's height is 1.5 times the length of its shadow, so we expect the same relationship for the globe.
... 1.5 × 2 ft = 3 ft

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
As a practical matter, with the sun high enough in the sky to cast a shadow shorter than the object's height, it will be quite difficult to measure the length of the shadow of the point at the top of the globe. The shadow of other parts of the globe will interfere.
