First, let's complete the angles in the triangle. Remember that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
73 + 90 + x = 180
163 + x = 180
x = 17
So, the angle that completes the triangle is 17 degrees. If we look at that angle in the triangle and the one adjacent to it, we can see that those two angles form a linear pair (or are supplementary, both meaning that they add up to 180 degrees).
17 + x = 180
x = 163
So, 17's supplement is 163 degrees. The 163 degree angle corresponds with angle r, and corresponding angles are congruent.
Therefore, angle r is 163 degrees. The correct answer is option C.
Hope this helps!
Okay, to find length CE, your going to know the value of <em>x</em>. Length BC + CE = BD + DE.
3x+47+x+26=27+x+10
Simplify the equation to get
4x+73=37+x
you can choose one of four ways to continue, but I will choose to subtract x
3x+73=37
Subtract 73 from both sides of the equal sign
3x=-36
divide by 3 on both sides of the equal sign to get the value of x
x=-12
Now, plug in -12 for x in length CE to get -12+26=14
I don't know if we can find the foci of this ellipse, but we can find the centre and the vertices. First of all, let us state the standard equation of an ellipse.
(If there is a way to solve for the foci of this ellipse, please let me know! I am learning this stuff currently.)

Where

is the centre of the ellipse. Just by looking at your equation right away, we can tell that the centre of the ellipse is:

Now to find the vertices, we must first remember that the vertices of an ellipse are on the major axis.
The major axis in this case is that of the y-axis. In other words,
So we know that b=5 from your equation given. The vertices are 5 away from the centre, so we find that the vertices of your ellipse are:

I really hope this helped you! (Partially because I spent a lot of time on this lol)

Answer:
y = -x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1,5)...x1 = -1 and y1 = 5
(1,3)....x2 = 1 and y2 = 3
slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (3 - 5) / (1 - (-1) = -2 / (1 + 1) = -2/2 = -1
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1
u can use either of ur points...I will use (1,3)...x = 1 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = -1(1) + b
3 = -1 + b
3 + 1 = b
4 = b
ur equation is : y = -x + 4 <===
