Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the upper triangle has a right angle at Island C, we need only use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x:
(10 mi)^2 + (20 mi)^2 = x^2, so that
x^2 = 100 mi^2 + 400 mi^2 = 500 mi^2, which reduces to
x = +10√5 mi
Note that the shortest side (10 mi) is adjacent to a 30 degree angle. Thus, the upper triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle, meaning that the Pythagorean Theorem DOES apply here.

Answer:
the answer is 4-x^2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x
and 2x cancel out
First you need to know that the internal angles of a triangle always equals 180°. Therefore:
15+45= 90°
Then since the angles should equal 180, you do:
180-90=90
So the missing angle equals 90°
2x+3y is the expression simplified
