2x+2=2x+5
-2=2x+2
2x=2x+7

First, distribute 2 into (x+1)
2x+2=2x+5
There cannot be the same variable on both sides of an equation, so subtract 2x from both sides.
2=5
Because 2 doesn't equal 5, there is no solution to this equation

Prove that: sin8A/1-cos8A=cot4A

nikitadnepr [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the identity

$\tan \frac{A}{2}= \dfrac{1 - \cos A}{\sin A}$

We can see that

$\dfrac{\sin 8A}{1 - \cos 8A} = \dfrac{1}{\tan 4A}= \cot 4A$

A communications tower is supported by two wires, connected at the same point on the ground. One is attached to the tower at D a

viktelen [127]

Answer:

10.99 m

Step-by-step explanation:

✍️What we are basically asked to solve here is to find the distance between C and D.

To find CD, find the length of BC, and BD. Their difference will give us CD.

Thus, BC - BD = CD.

✍️Finding BC using trigonometric ratio formula:

$\theta = 30 + 10 = 40$

Opposite side = BC = ??

Adjacent side = 42 m

Thus:

$tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

Plug in the values

$tan(40) = \frac{BC}{42}$

Multiply both sides by 42

$tan(40) \times 42 = \frac{BC}{42} \times 42$

$35.24 = BC$

BC = 35.24 m

✍️Finding BD using trigonometric ratio formula:

$\theta = 30$

Opposite side = BD = ??

Adjacent side = 42 m

Thus:

$tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

Plug in the values

$tan(30) = \frac{BD}{42}$

Multiply both sides by 42

$tan(30) \times 42 = \frac{BD}{42} \times 42$

$24.25 = BD$

BD = 24.25 m

✍️How much below the top of the tower is the shorter one attached:

Thus,

BC - BD = CD

35.24 m - 24.25 m = 10.99 m
