Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

setup a proportion

                               Big Triangle             Small Triangle

corresponding              15                              3

corresponding               x                               6

so you are trying to solve 15/x=3/6

cross multiply 6(15)=3(x)

last step divide both sides by 3 giving x=30 ft

In a triangle ABC with |AB|=9m,|AC| =6m ,the sides AB and AC are produced to points X and Y respectively such that angleBXY=62°,
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

|BC| = 9.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle bxy = angle abc (reason, corresponding angles)

Angle ayx = angle acb ( reason , corresponding angles)

So angle abc= 62°

Angle acb = 51°

Angle acb + and + bac = 180 (reason, sum of angles in a triangle)

Anlge bac = 180-62-51

Angle bac= 180-113

Angle back = 67°

Using sine formula

|BC| /sin 67 = 9/sin 62

|BC| = sin 67 *9/sin62

|BC| = 9.4 m

Find the unknown angle
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

y= 75

x= 53

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 75

Vertically opposite angles

x=53

75 + 52 = 127

angles in a triangle add up to 180

180 - 127 = 53

Hope this helps!

Mila [183]

Answer:

-16

Step-by-step explanation:

-k² -(3k-5n)+4n k=-1 , n= -2

= -(-1)² - ( 3(-1) -5(-2) )+4(-2)

= -1-(-3+10)-8

= -1-(7)-8

= -1-7-8

= -16

How do i solve this? <br><br> 7 &lt; 3 - 2x<br><br><br> It's linear inequalities
Natasha2012 [34]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x < -2

Discussion:

7 < 3 - 2x                       => Add 2x to both sides

7 + 2x < 3 - (2x - 2x)     =>  As 2x -2x = 0

7 + 2x < 3                      =>  Subtract  7 from both sides

(7-7) +  2x < 3 - 7           => As 7-7 = 0 and 3-7 = -4

2x < -4                           => Divide both sides by 2

x < -4./2 = -2

Thank you,

MrB
