BAC ~ DEC what is the value of x?

Answer: x = 37.8

Step-by-step explanation: We start with triangle ABC with two sides given as 15 and 18. We shall make angle C the reference angle and thereby calculate the third side, line BC.

Since we have the opposite side as 15, and the adjacent side (which lies between the reference angle and the right angle) as 18, we can use the tangent of the angle C

Tan C = Opp/Adj

Tan C = 15/18

Tan C = 0.8333

From our table of values/use of the calculator

Tan C = 39.8

Angle C in triangle ACB = Angle C in triangle ECD (Opposite angles are equal).

That takes us to triangle ECD, since the reference angle is known (39.8) and the opposite side is also given (31.5), we can now calculate the adjacent which is side x.

Tan C = Opp/Adj

Tan 39.8 = 31.5/x

when you cross multiply, x moves to the left hand side, while Tan 39.8 moves to the right hand side

x = 31.5/Tan 39.8

x = 31.5/0.8333

<u>x = 37.8</u>

Given m|n, find the value of x and y.
galben [10]

We know that m ║ n.

Let's first find the value 'x'.

When two lines are parallel, and a transversal is drawn, the angles on the same side of the transversal are equivalent.

This means that (5x + 16)° and (7x + 4)° are equivalent.

Equating them,

5x + 16 = 7x + 4

16 - 4 = 7x - 5x

12 = 2x

x = 12/2

x = 6°

Since we know the value of 'x', let's substitute them into the angles and find out the actual measurements.

5x + 16 = 5 × 6 + 16 = 30 + 16 = 46°.

7x + 4 = 7 × 6 + 4 = 42 + 4 = 46°.

Now let's find the value of 'y'.

If you observe carefully, (7x + 4)° and (y + 6)° form a linear pair.

This means that both those angles should add upto 180°.

Using that theory, the following equation can be framed:

(y + 6)°+ (7x + 4)° = 180°

Since we know the actual value of (7x + 4)°, let's substitute that value and move ahead.

(y + 6)° + 46° = 180°

y + 6 + 46° = 180

y + 52° = 180°

y = 180° - 52°

y = 128°

Therefore, the values of 'x' and 'y' are 46° and 128° respectively.

Hope it helps. :)

What is the solution to the inequality lx-4l=3
xxMikexx [17]

Answer: x = 7, x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-4| = 3

we know either x-4 = 3 or x-4 = -3

x-4 + 4 = 3 + 4

x = 7

x - 4 + 4 = -3 + 4

x = 1

Folds - Circle Cliffs, UT. Both monoclines and anticlines uplift and deform rock layers such that when eroded, certain ages of r
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:the relative ages of the rocks exposed in the circle cliff area are given below.

1. older rocks are exposed in the center and younger rocks in the flanking flatirons.

2. younger rocks are exposed in the center and older rocks in the flanking flatirons.

Step-by-step explanation: this is because whenever older rocks are exposed in circle cliffs, exposure occur at the center while younger rocks will be exposed in the flanking flatirons at this time.

2. But when younger rocks are exposed in contrast to the older rocks, these younger rocks are exposed at the center while the older ones receive exposure at the flanking flatirons.

Note that both cases interchange, exposure of a particular rock occur at the center and the next category of rock receive theirs at flanking flatirons.
