Answer:
x = 225.16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The angle between the piling and the pier is 60°.
A surveyor has set up his transit on one side of the lake 130 feet from a piling that is directly across from a pier on the other side of the lake.
We need to find the distance between the piling and the pier. Let the distance be d. Using the trigonometry to find it as follows :

So, the required distance is 225.16 feet.

have a nice day and be safe :)
Answer: 47
Step-by-step explanation:Find the absolute value of both which would be |8|+|-39|
Then you add 8 and 39 together which would be 47
I'm sure there's an easier way to do this, but this method does work:
First, AB = CD = CG + GF + FD, so FG = 2.
By the Pythagorean theorem, in triangle AFD we get

and in triangle BCG,

Angles AFD and EFG form a vertical pair, so they are congruent and have measure

Similarly, angles BGC and FGE are congruent and have measure

Then the remaining angle in triangle EFG has measure

We can solve for the lengths of FE and GE exactly by applying the law of sines:


Let
be the semiperimeter of triangle ABE, so that

Then according to Heron's formula, the area of triangle ABE is
