Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
The square roots of 25 are √25=5 and −√25=−5 since 52=25 and (−5)2=25 . The principal square root of 25 is √25=5 .
Parallel lines have the same slope.
So I plug in the -5 and -4
-4 = 1/2(-5) + b
-4 = -2.5 + b
b = -1.5
So I get y = 1/2x - 3/2
Answer: a = 23 ft.
Reasoning:
The question asks for the value of the leg a, given the tangent of the opposite angle and the length of the adjacent-leg, b.
The ratio that relates the three parameters is:
tan(A) = opposite-leg / adjacent-leg = a / b = a / 23 ft
Solve for a, wich is the unknown:
a = 23ft * tan(A) = 23ft * 1.0 = 23 ft
Answer: 23 ft.
