Answer:
x=70
y= 40
Step-by-step explanation:
the triangle containing x is an isosceles triangle so two of the sides are 55.
55+55+x=180.
110+x=180
110-110+x=180-110
x=70
Triangle BAC is equilateral so 180/3=60. Now
x+60+c=180
70+60+c=180
130+c=180
130-130+c=180-130
c=50
That gives us one corner of triangle CBD. We know a second angle is 90 so
50+90+y=180
140+y=180
140-140+y=180-140
y=40
I think that is correct but you are free to check it yourself
The question isn’t equal to 90° it’s equal to 180° because the line is straight it’s not a right angle. so when u equal the whole equation to 180°, you get x=18.75. then plug in the number to find the degree of each.
so angle of department would be 139.25° and angle of gas station would be 40.75°
Pythagorean
Theorem as follows: A^2+B^2=C^2
Answer: 12.69 miles approx
Step-by-step explanation:
let x represent the number of miles traveled
1.75 + 0.65x = 10
0.65x = 8.25
x = 12.69 miles approx
