Answer:
60.2 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the width of the river. The distance from the point across from the tree to the second point is 15 m. The angle from this point to the tree across the river is 76°.
This makes the side opposite the angle x, the width of the river. It also means the 15 m side is adjacent to this angle.
The ratio opposite/adjacent is the ratio for tangent; this gives us the equation
x/15 = tan(76)
Multiply both sides by 15:
15(x/15) = 15(tan(76))
x = 15(tan(76)) ≈ 60.2
Okay so you out them into the form of y=mx+b. since equation 2 is already like that you need to do it to equation 1. which is y=-4x+4. graph both equations. if it has a solution (1 point where the two lines meet) it is consistantly and independent. if they are parallel lines and the solution is 0 the system is inconsistent and the lines are dependent. if it's the same line they are consistent and dependent. the line is not the same since the y intercept is different. the slope is the same though which tells us its parallel. so the system has a solution of 0 and is inconsistent and the lines are independent.
4 tables. 4*4 is 16, meaning that even if 4 players want to sit together it doesn't make a difference. With 16 players and 4 at a table we are going to need 4 tables.
They are corresponding angles. Corresponding angles have equal measures.
