About 0.3 degrees, by estimation.  
The sixty-to-one rule is useful here.  At a distance of 60 units, the angle in degrees and the distance (in units) are about equal for small angles.  
Thirty to two inches is the same as sixty to four inches, about a third of a foot, so the angle must be about a third of a degree.  Rounded it gives 0.3.  
My horribly antiquated TI-82 thinks the answer is about 0.3183 by this methodtan−1(1/180)≈0.3183

PLEASE HELP simple geometry problem
vlabodo [156]

Perimeter is adding the 3 sides together. Since both triangles have the same perimeter set both triangles to equal:


(x+3 + x+3 + x+3) = (x+3 + 2x-3 + x)

Simplify each side:

3x+9 = 4x

Subtract 3x from each side:

Nth term sequences, please may I get some help. 15 p.
Dovator [93]

Answer:

(n+2)^2+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Pattern 1 consists of

3+3\times 3+3 small squares (here n = 1 and 3\times 3=(1+2)\times (1+2)).

Pattern 2 consists of

3+4\times 4+3 small squares (here n = 2 and 4\times 4=(2+2)\times (2+2)).

Pattern 3 consists of

3+5\times 5+3 small squares (here n = 3 and 5\times 5=(3+2)\times (3+2)).

Thus, pattern n consists of

3+(n+2)\times (n+2)+3=6+(n+2)^2 small squares.
