yulyashka [42]

Answer:

m<S = 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle equals 180 deg.

m<R + m<S + m<T = 180

3x + 2x + 3x = 180

8x = 180

x = 22.5

m<S = 2x = 2(22.5) = 45

The gable end of the roof shown is divided in half by a vertical brace. Find the distance h (in ft) from an eave to the peak. 41

nlexa [21]

Answer:

h = 9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the diagram is like the one below.

∆ABD is a right triangle.

We can use Pythagoras' Theorem to find the height h.

$\begin{array}{rcl}h^{2} + 40^{2} & = & 41^{2}\\h^{2} + 1600 & = & 1681\\h^{2} & = & 1681 - 1600\\& = &81\\h& = & \sqrt{81}\\&=& \mathbf{9}\end{array}\\\text{The height of the gable is $\large \boxed{\textbf{9 ft}}$}$
