In a cyclic quadrilateral, the opposite angles add up to 180 degrees.
Opposite angle to angle A = Angle D.
A + D = 180
64 + D = 180
D = 180 - 64
D = 116°
Option E.
2 ( which came from 2y ) divided by 6 is 3.
Answer:
7.28 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the distance at closest approach is represented by x. Then the distance to the point of closest approach at the first sighting is ...
d1 = x·tan(62°)
At the second sighting, the distance to the point of closest approach is ...
d2 = x·tan(38°)
The difference of these distances is 8 miles, so we have ...
d1 -d2 = 8 = x(tan(62°) -tan(38°))
Dividing by the coefficient of x, we find ...
x = 8/(tan(62°) -tan(38°)) ≈ 7.2764 . . . . miles
The point of closest approach is about 7.28 miles from the landmark.
Positive correlation.
Zero is x increases y stays the same
Negative is both decrease
