The answer is 471 feet.

If A = man to left of balloon 
<span>B = balloon </span>
<span>C = man to right of balloon </span>

<span>∠BAC = 75°20' </span>
<span>∠BCA = 49°30' </span>
<span>∠ABC = 180 - 75°20' - 49°30' = 55°10' </span>
<span>AB = 400 ft </span>

<span>Now we have to find the value of x, which is the side opposite to angle of 75°20' </span>

<span>Using Law of Sines: </span>
<span>x/sin(75°20') = 400/sin(55°10') </span>
<span>x = 400 * sin(75°20') / sin(55°10') </span>
<span>x = 471.44 </span>
<span>x = 471 ft </span>

Of a triangle
arsen [322]

Complete question is attached.

Answer:

a) ED = 6.5 cm

b) BE = 14.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the triangle, we are given the following dimensions:

AB = 20 cm

BC = 5 cm

CD = 18 cm

AE = 26 cm

We are asked to find length of sides ED and BE.

a) Find length of ED.

From the triangle Let's use the equation:

\frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{AE}{ED}

Cross multiplying, we have:

AB * ED = AE * BC

From this equation, let's make ED subject of the formula.

ED = \frac{AE * BC}{AB}

Let's substitute figures,

ED = \frac{26 * 5}{20}

ED = \frac{130}{20} = 6.5

Therefore, length of ED is 6.5 cm.

b) To find length of BE, let's use the equation:

\frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{BE}{CD}

Cross multiplying, we have:

AB * CD = AC * BE

Let's make BE subject of the formula,

BE = \frac{AB * CD}{AC}

From the triangle, length AC = AB + BC.

AC = 20 + 5 = 25

Substituting figures, we have:

BE = \frac{20 * 18}{25}

BE = \frac{360}{25} = 14.4

Therefore, length Of BE is 14.4cm
