Answer:
6/5=x/15
Step-by-step explanation:
6/5=x/15,where x is hight of the lamp post
x=18
Factor 4
4=1 times 4
2 times 2
they don't add to 2
set up equation
x+y=2
xy=4
first equation, subtract x from both sides
y=2-x
subsitute for y
x(2-x)=4
distribute
2x-x^2=4
add x^2
2x=x^2+4
subtract 2x
0=x^2-2x+4
use quadratic formula which is
if you have ax^2+bx+c=0 then
x=

so
1x^2-2x+4=0
a=1
b=-2
c=4
x=

x=

x=

we have

and that doesn't give a real solution
therefor there are no real solutions
but if you want to solve fully
x=

i=

x=

x=

x=

or x=

(those are the 2 numbers)

Answer:B: 36°
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that ∆ABC is isoceles, making (angle)<ABC and <BCA congruent because base angles of isoceles triangles are congruent.
Because we have parallel lines, we can look for alternate interior angle pairs. <BCA is congruent to <DAC because they're alternate interior angles.
If <BCA is x then so is <ABC.
Since triangles add up to 180° we can add all of the angles (3x+x+x) and set it equal to 180.
3x+x+x=180
5x=180
x=36
If we were looking for <BAC we would plug that back in and solve, but we're looking for <BCA which is equal to x, therefore m<BCA=36°
Answer:
1) B = 66.5° c = 10.9
Step-by-step explanation:
I will do question one as an example. In general, for these questions you want to use the appropriate trigonometric ratios to solve for the variables and/or apply logic using rules regarding triangles. See attached image for all solving steps.
For side c, we can use Cosine of angle A for a ratio between 10 and c. When we write out the equation, we can solve for side c. So when we write it out, we get the equation:
cos23.5 = ¹⁰⁄c
c = ¹⁰⁄cos₂₃.₅
c = 10.9044 (make sure to round to the nearest tenth, which is one decimal place)
For angle B, since they have given two angles, you can solve for B since all angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.
So b = 180 - (90 + 23.5) = 180 - 113.5
b = 66.5
- It is also possible to solve this using sine of angle B and solve it from there, but applying the theory this way is much simpler. (this is on the image if you're curious about it)
I hope this helps you with the other 3 questions.
