Triangles CPA and CPB are both right triangles. They share a leg, so that leg in one triangle is congruent to that leg in the other triangle. We are given that PA is congruent to PB by the hash marks on the diagram. Thus two legs and an included angle are congruent between the triangles.
... ∆CPA ≅ ∆CPB by the SAS postulate
Then side CA ≅ CB = 15 in, because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC).
... CA is 15 in.

Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
It generally works well to follow directions.
The matrix of coefficients is ...
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&4\\-5&3\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D2%264%5C%5C-5%263%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Its inverse is the transpose of the cofactor matrix, divided by the determinant. That is ...
![\dfrac{1}{26}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4\\5&2\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B26%7D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D3%26-4%5C%5C5%262%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
So the solution is the product of this and the vector of constants [-6, -50]. That product is ...
... x = (3·(-6) +(-4)(-50))/26 = 7
... y = (5·(-6) +2·(-50))/26 = -5
The solution using inverse matrices is ...
... (x, y) = (7, -5)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The "power rule" tells us that to raise a power to a power, just multiply the exponents
so

we have

Applying the "power rule"

That kinda means to see how many times 4 goes into 50 and write that as a percentage. Hoped I helped
