To calculate the value of x, you can apply:
Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg
In this case, the opposite leg is "x", and the adjacent leg is 15. The angle α is 30° (α=30°)
When we substitute this values, we obtain:
Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg
Tan(30°)=x/15
x=(15)(Tan(30°))
x=5√3
<span>What is the value of x?
</span>
The answer is: The value of x is 5√3
B is correct hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
slope of the segment through (-9, -8) and (-5, 6) is (-9-(-5))/(-8-6)=-(-4)/(-14)=2/7
this means the slope of the perpendicular is -7/2.
the midpoint of the segment is (-7, -1)
so the line is y+1=(-7/2)(x+7).
