Answer:

The horizontal distance between the parking lot and the launch site is 470 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----->  the horizontal distance between the parking lot and the launch site

we know that

The tangent of angle of 12 degrees is equal to divide the altitude of 100 meters by the horizontal distance

so

tan(12°)=100/x

Solve for x

x=100/tan(12°)=470 meters

8.)What is the Measurement of angle 2?<br><br> 9.) What is the measure of angle 7?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

angle 2 = 90° {corresponding angles}

angle 7 + angle 5 = 180° {linear pair}

or, angle 7 + 100° = 180° {angle 5 is corresponding to 100°}

so, angle 7 = 80°

Hello!

Judging on the questions you have provided I have come to the conclusion that to solve all of these you need to find the value of x by isolating it all on one side and simplifying.

For question #1 the first step would be to subtract 6 from each side.
The outcome should be -x=-6-12, and if simplified -x=-18.
Next, you want to divide each side by -1 because x needs to always be positive when finding the solution.
Your answer for #1 should be X=18, D.

For question #2 the first step you should take is to subtract 1.33 from each side to isolate x. 
The outcome should be x=7.82-1.33, and if simplified x=6.49.
Thus your answer for #2 should be X=6.49, A.

For question #3 the first step you should take to approaching the equation is to isolate x by adding 15.99 towards each side of the equation.
The outcome should be x=58.06+15.99, and if simplified x=74.05.
Thus your answer for question #3 should be X=74.05, D.

Lastly, for question #4 the first step you should take towards isolating x is to divide the entire equation by 1.32.
Your outcome should be x= 6.8
Thus, your answer for the last question, #4, should be X=6.8, C.

Hope this helped!

Pythagoras ' Theorem - Solving Complex Problems​
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

1.you don't need to calculate 25²,7²,30² and 16² because you have a formula a²-b²=(a+b)(a-b)

OP²=MO²-MP²

OP²=25²-7²

OP²=(25+7)(25-7)

=32(8)

=256

OP=√256

OP=16 cm

NP²=NO²-OP²

NP²=30²-16²

=(30+16)(30-16)

=46(14)

=144

NP=√144

=12 cm

2.draw a straight line from the angle C and name that line with CE

CE=AD and AE=CD (because AECD is a rechtangular)

So EB=10-7 =3 cm

BC²=EC²+EB²

=4²+3²

=16+9

=25

BC=√25

=5 cm

for area of the square? i don't understand this question...
