Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation
In order to solve for x, we need to get all of the x's to one side and everything else to the opposite side
First, we can add 1 to each side
Now, we can add x to each side
Next, we can divide each side by 2
And here is our answer.
The positions of the sun, earth and shooting star form a right angled triangle, where distance between earth and sun is 'y', and the angle 'x°' is given
Now, in a right angled triangle using trigonometry, we can determine a side of the triangle is one of the sides and one of the angles is known
Here, if we use cos x = we can determine the distance between the shooting star and the sun. This can be done because we know that the base is 'y', the angle is x° and the hypotenuse represents the distance between the sun and the shooting star
Note: cos values for each x are definite.
