For this case we must find the value of "x", by trigonometric relations.
The tangent of an angle is given by the leg opposite the angle on the leg adjacent to the same angle.

Answer:
21.4
We will use the Pythagorean theorem:
8² + 12² = c²
64 + 144 = c²
c = √208 ≈ 14.42
14.42 - 12 = 2.42 in
The direct distance between the lizard and the cactus is 2.42 inches.
Answer:
807.8 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The total area of the box is the sum of the areas of all faces of the box. The top, bottom, front, and back faces are rectangles 18 in long. The end faces each consist of a rectangle and a triangle. We can compute the sum of these like this:
The areas of top, bottom, front, and back add up to be 18 inches wide by the length that is the perimeter of the end: 2·5in +2·8 in + 9.6 in = 35.8 in. That lateral area is ...
(18 in)(35.6 in) = 640.8 in^2
The area of the triangle on each end is equivalent to the area of a rectangle half as high, so we can compute the area of each end as ...
(9.6 in)(8.7 in) = 83.52 in^2
Then the total area is the lateral area plus the area of the two ends:
640.8 in^2 + 2·83.52 in^2 = 807.84 in^2 ≈ 807.8 in^2
Slope intercept form:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept:
We Know the slope (m=2)and we have a point (4,2) then:
x₀=4
y₀=2
we have to find "b"
y=mx+b
2=2(4)+b
8+b=2
b=2-8
b=-6
Therefore:
if b=-6 and m=2; the equation in slope intercept form would be:
y=2x-6
