Let x be her initial distance from the building, then tan 37 = 130/x
x = 130/tan 37 = 130/0.7536 = 172.5 feet
Let y be her distance from the building after moving forward, then
tan 40 = 130/y
y = 130/tan 40 = 130/0.8391 = 154.9
After moving forward, she is 172.5 - 154.9 = 17.6 ft closer.
Answer:
5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
You find a slope by using the equation y2-y1/x2-x1.
In this case: 15-5/21-7
10/14
5/7
Answer: the length of each of the two equal sides is 25 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of each of the two equal sides. This means that the total length of the two longer sides is 2x.
Let y represent the length of the third side.
The perimeter of a triangle is expressed as the sum of the length of each side of the triangle. The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is 65 centimeters. It means that
2x + y = 65 - - - - - - - - - 1
Each of the equal sides is 10 centimeters longer than the third side. This means that
x = y + 10
Substituting x = y + 10 into equation 1, it becomes
2(y + 10) + y = 65
2y + 20 + y = 65
2y + y = 65 - 20
3y = 45
y = 45/3 = 15
Substituting y = 15 into x = y + 10, it becomes
x = 15 + 10 = 25
Answer:
x = 76.80°
4x - 142 = 165.18°
x/5 = 15.36°
5x/9 + 60 = 102.66°
Step-by-step explanation:
Total angle in a quadrilateral is 360
x + 4x - 142 + x/5 + (5/9)x + 60 = 360
259x/45 + - 82 = 360
259x/45 = 442
x = 76.7953668
x = 76.80°
4x - 142 = 165.18°
x/5 = 15.36°
5x/9 + 60 = 102.66°
