Answer:
54
Explanation:
Area of a triangle: 1/2 * base * height
1/2 * 18 * 6 = 54
Hope this helped you! :)
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. :)
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a right triangle formed between the height above the tower to the plane, the horizontal and the line from the tower to the plane.
The height above the tower to the plane = 13000 - 150 = 12850 ft
The angle between the plane and the tower is 20° , angle of depression.
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle formed, with the adjacent side being the horizontal ( hor ) distance, then
tan20° = 
= 
( multiply both sides by hor)
hor × tan20° = 12850 ( divide both sides by tan20° )
hor = 
≈ 35305 ft ( to the nearest foot )
(2)
Arianna is 60 + 5 = 65 ft above the ground ( to her eye level )
Using the right triangle formed with legs 65 and 37 and angle of depression x, then
tanx° = = 
, thus
x = 
( ) ≈ 30° ( to the nearest degree )
