We can represent the base as z and the height as 2z+6. We are going to use the formula A=1/2*b*h and solve for z
180=1/2*z*(2z+6)
360=2z^2+6z
0=2z^2+6z-360
0=2(z^2+3z-180)
0=(z+15)(z-12)
So z=-15 and 12 but it must be positive so then the base is equal to 12
When we plug this into 2z+6 we get 30 for the height
2(12)+6=30
Hope this helps
Answer:
57.5 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this is a triangle
a is adjacent is ∠B
b is opposite of ∠B
Use the inverse tangent equation:
This equals to 57.52880771
To factor both numerator and denominator in this rational expression we are going to substitute
with
; so
and
. This way we can rewrite the expression as follows:
Now we have two much easier to factor expressions of the form
. For the numerator we need to find two numbers whose product is
(30) and its sum
(-11); those numbers are -5 and -6.
and
.
Similarly, for the denominator those numbers are -2 and -5.
and
. Now we can factor both numerator and denominator:
Notice that we have
in both numerator and denominator, so we can cancel those out:
But remember than
, so lets replace that to get back to our original variable:
Last but not least, the denominator of rational expression can't be zero, so the only restriction in the variable is
